The plot revolves around the production of The Swan Lake ballet by a high profile New York City company. The lead ballerina is required to portray both the innocent White Swan and the sensual Black Swan. Nina (Portman) is identified as perfect for the role of the White Swan but the director Leroy (Cassel) believes that Nina lacks the fluidity which is required to portray the Black Swan. Nina's darker side comes to the fore when she realizes that Lily (Kunis) has a personality that matches the Black Swan and that she might replace her in the lead role. After several bouts with hallucinations and drug abuse, Nina portrays the Black Swan to perfection, receiving a standing ovation from the audience.
An intensely passionate drama, Black Swan deserves to be watched.
