Venus In Fur tells the story of playwright/director Thomas in his search for an actress to play the role of Vanda in his stage adaption of the story Venus In Fur. Though the actress who comes in to audition seems completely wrong for the part, she shows a strong command for the material. The script reading and the real world begin to blur, though, as Vanda (the actress) takes control of the sado-masochistic role and creates a relationship of dominance and submission with the director.
