Young. Sexy. Eternal.
Lena (Karoline Herfurth, Perfume: Story of a Murderer) is a troubled young woman from the wrong part of town. Antisocial and self destructive, Lena is caught in a dead end life until she meets Louise. Beautiful and glamorous, Louise is everything Lena is not and Lena cannot help but be flattered by her attention and the promise of a new life and family. A life of power and excitement. A life that will never, ever end.
Fresh from the success of his internationally acclaimed The Wave, director Dennis Gansel delivers a darkly sexy spin on the vampire mythos, one where glamour and power come with a price not noticed until it is far too late.
Nina Hoss and Jennifer Ulrich star in this German smash.

Rotten: A love triangle with fangs but no bite, the German import "We Are the Night" is mostly infatuated with its own stylish excesses.
-Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times, May 26, 2011Fresh: Stylishly reinvents juvenile pulp with flashy pyrotechnics.
-Ronnie Scheib, Variety, May 25, 2011Fresh: Gansel compensates for the story's lack of emotional heft with rousing chase scenes and impressive, near-poetic CGI set pieces, and works in a sly suggestion that vampirism is the ultimate expression of consumerist indulgence.
-Mark Holcomb, Village Voice, May 24, 2011
It was a good movie, but I had no idea before I bought it, that it was subtitled. Still enjoyed it, but would liked to have know before I got it, that I would have to read the whole movie.
