Black Swan is a gripping psychological thriller set in the competitive world of the New York ballet. Nina is a dedicated dancer whose dreams of taking the lead in Swan Lake threaten to overpower her already fragile state of mind. Natalie Portman gives a powerful performance as Nina, as she struggles to open herself up to the passion and darkness needed to play the Black Swan.
