This third-person narrative of relationships based

on trues stories, woven in betrayal, lust, illusion and

hope, and set in New York in the mid-1970s could

be titled "The Parisian Kate Married." As he grapples

with a migration project to the United States, a 24-year

old African-born Frenchman, Morie, needs to

find an elusive balance between a carefree Parisian

lifestyle that might eventually catch up with him,

and the commitment of marriage to a New York

woman, Kate. It brings you in the tumultuous area of

immigration and marriage, with marriage occurring

not for love or mutual care, but for a green-card.

You will find yourself wondering whether Morie is

an actor, a diplomat, or a politician as he takes you

along on his journey - trading Paris for New York.
