Synopsis
Le film conte l'histoire de Lucrèce, une tueuse à gages. Celle-ci, dont l'amour de l'opéra n'a d'égal que sa maîtrise de l'art des poisons, s'apprête à remplir un « contrat » délicat en Suisse, en plein festival d'Ermeux : là, se faisant passer pour une cantatrice, elle doit assassiner un baryton britannique, Alexander Child, qui fait obstacle à un projet d'oléoduc de la British Oil ; celle-ci, déboutée en justice lors du procès qui l'opposait au baryton, n'a en effet plus d'espoir que dans le meurtre du chanteur.Actors
