Synopsis: From the controversial novella comes the story of a young army officer who finds himself stranded in the Sahara desert. Left to his own devices, Augustin Robert (Ben Daniels) would surely die...but after stumbling upon mysterious ruins, home to a wild leopard, the man and beast form an inextricable bond. Miraculously, the animal saves Robert's life and soon a dangerous friendship develops that could threaten both their lives. The mysteries of Egypt unfold in this mystical and lyrical journey that explores the link between man and beast. An exotic and lustrous film, The New York Times calls Passion in the Desert "a mesmerizing tale reminiscent of The English Patient."
