A La Nouvelle-Orléans, Irena croit commencer une vie nouvelle auprès de son frère. Elle veut oublie la malédiction qui l'a marquée dès l'enfance, la fin tragique de ses parents, dresseurs de fauves. Et pourtant c'est à nouveau le drame: son frère disparaît... ...tandis que dans la ville un léopard noir, surgi de nulle part, sème la panique jusqu'à ce que Oliver Yates, le directeur du zoo, réussisse à le capturer. Fascinée par ce fauve qui éveille en elle d'étranges pulsions, terrorisée par son frère qui resurgit en proie à une rage incestueuse, Irena vacille. Oliver peut-il la sauver ? Elle l'aime de tout son être, avec passion, mais cet amour n'est-il pas interdit, mortel pour l'un et l'autre ? Les légendes anciennes parlaient d'âmes errantes de léopards, avides de se réincarner. Sur ce thème, Paul Schrader le réalisateur de Hard Core, d'American gigolo a tourné un film étonnant de terreur et d'érotisme, avec en vedette Nastassia Kinski. ( )
