Adapted from David Ives’ stage play and set in the auditorium of a Parisian theatre, Roman Polanski’s Venus in Fur is an intense two-hander with captivating performances from Emmanuelle Seigner and Mathieu Amalric as Vanda, an alluring and seemingly scatter-brained actress, and Thomas a world-weary theatre director. Vanda’s late night audition for the female lead in Thomas’s new production of Venus in Furs sees her draw him into a world of strange and erotic role-play.
