Night Watch

Imaginative Russian fantasy, set against the backdrop of a cold war between two factions of mystical beings, including vampires, witches and shapeshifters, on the streets of Moscow - a conflict the human population remain happily oblivious to. Konstantin Khabensky stars as Anton, an ordinary man who discovers he is one of these creatures, and ends up recruited into an organisation set up by one side to make sure the other doesn't break the truce. A young boy is discovered who has the ability to bring their ancient conflict to a decisive conclusion, and both sides are determined to make sure he chooses to join them - leading Anton to confront his past misdeeds. It's a visually impressive and fast-paced affair - even the subtitles are stylish. With Galina Tyunina
