Synopsis

In this charming fantasy set in the Renaissance, the Archbishop wants a nephew, but a perfect one-so an artisan fashions one for him of Venetian glass. Problems arise when the glass nephew falls in love with a flesh-and-blood woman. A subtle, sensitively written allegory of life and art, with humour.
