Calm Horror Story
|
The film begins at a zoo, where a black panther paces in a cage. A young woman is drawing a sketch: a cat with a sword in it. Irena invites the man to her well-furnished apartment. She likes the dark "it is friendly". There is a statue of King John of Serbia, who freed his country from oppression and evil. The gift of a kitten reveals something about this girl. Her visit to a pet shop disturbs the pets. Do animals detect a person who is not right? Their relationship has some hidden problem; is it due to a fairy tale about the "cat people"? Will the different backgrounds create a problem? A strange woman at the restaurant is like an evil omen.
Irena's pet canary dies; is it of fright? There is a problem in its disposal. Will a psychiatrist help her out of her fear from old-country legends? Will talking cure her? Did Oliver say too much? Is there a problem when Oliver sees Alice at the restaurant? What happened to that sheep? The film suggests fear and terror by lighting effects, and a torn robe. Is Irena becoming insane? Will Oliver's asking for a divorce push Irena over the edge? Fear and terror are suggested by minimal actions. There is an assault on Dr. Judd, then a conclusion to this story.
This is a variation on a romantic triangle with the complexity of the obscure legend of a cat woman, similar to the werewolf legend.
