Summary:
"Alone in a Parisian theatre after a day of auditioning actresses for the play he is preparing to direct, Thomas is complaining over the phone about the low standard of the auditionees. He is getting ready to leave when Vanda appears. She embodies everything Thomas hates and will stop at nothing to get the part. But when Thomas finds himself backed into a corner and lets her try her luck, he is amazed to see Vanda transformed. The 'audition' lengthens and intensifies, and Thomas's attraction starts to develop into an obsession..."--Container.
"Seul dans un théâtre parisien après une journée passée à auditionner des comédiennes pour la pièce qu'il s'apprête à mettre en scène, Thomas se lamente au téléphone sur la piètre performance des candidates. Il se prépare à partir lorsque Vanda surgit, véritable tourbillon d'énergie, aussi débridée que délurée. Vanda incarne tout ce que Thomas déteste. Elle ne reculerait devant rien pour obtenir le rôle. Mais, un peu contraint et forcé, Thomas la laisse tenter sa chance et c'est avec stupéfaction qu'il voit Vanda se métamorphoser. Alors que l'« audition » se prolonge et redouble d'intensité, l'attraction de Thomas se mue en obsession..."--Conteneur.
