Why does the wind blow?
To cover our tracks.
So that no one knows we're still alive.
It was a long time ago,
and nowadays nobody remembers the battle on the Bridge of Justice...
when the warriors of Light fought against the warriors of Dark.
Nobody remembers the bloodshed.
And how the heart of Great Gesser couldn't endure it,
and he stopped that battle.
But some day, when the night is longer than the day,
a new Great One will come, and the world will descend into darkness.
And then nothing but the Chalk of Fate can save us.
And this chalk was kept in an impenetrable fortress,
and everyone who tried to find the chalk, died in an endless labyrinth.
Without any exception.
Until Tamerlan.
Hoy!
Northern Iran. Tamerlan's Army
Mercy!
Mercy! I have done you no harm!
There's the chalk!
Greetings, Tamerlan, hardened and ruthless.
I shall control the fate of the world.
But you can't even control your own fate.
What do I write?
What do you want?
To live!
Then write it.
There's the chalk!
You already told me...
From then on, Tamerlan never again made any irreparable mistakes.
Are you interested?
Trainee Nazarova, put this book in its place, please.
Do you think that the chalk really exists?
Why, do you want to fix something?
Get your knee off of me, please.
Why do you always say rude things to me?
I said, get your knee off of me, please!
"Happy new year! Moscow 2006"
You know, I'm hungry.
If you want, I'll invite you to a restaurant.
Which one?
That one - Chinese.
Chinese?
OK. Tomorrow. At 6... no, 7 o'clock.
- Really? - Really.
I'll ask you again tomorrow.
Right, ask me tomorrow.
If nothing strange happens.
VDNH. Is anybody in that sector?
Gorodetsky, 5 minutes out.
There's a human under attack.
Some old lady again. It's the same MO: He’s using a charmed needle.
He's stabbing her in the back.
Needle went in through the shoulder blade and reached the vertebrae capillary net.
What is this?
The criminal is sucking vital energy from the victim's body.
We can't identify him.
Be careful, he's dangerous.
I can't go in there right now - I'm with a trainee.
- 1485th accepted. We're on our way. - What's with you?
Thanks, Anton. I knew you couldn't reject it.
Bastards! We need to crush them.
Don't enter the Gloom by yourself, ok?
Well...
Don't make any quick moves. Breathe deeply.
Don't EVER think of going into the second level.
What's on the second level?
I don't know. I've never been there.
People say there are mosquitoes.
None of the mosquitoes can live there either.
But Boris Ivanovich really said - they do.
Well, if Boris Ivanovich said so - it must be true!
So, all you have to do is turn on the flashlight. Push that button...
What does that button do?
There she is!
Sveta!
What the heck are you doing?
Sveta!
You're supposed to be sitting in the car, aren't you?
Why do you always shout at me?
And then he stabbed me under my shoulder-blade with something like a needle.
And then, as I bent over...
"EVIL juice"
You scum!
Stop!
Stop! Freeze!
Sveta!
That's better, yeah? Wait. I'll be back, be back.
Shit, bitches! They've all run off.
Out of the way!
Get out of the way!
Sveta!
Freeze!
Stop! Freeze!
Freeze!
Stop! Freeze!
Come back!
Come here!
Behind you!
Turn around!
Behind you!
Freeze!
Stop! Stay there!
Nazarova!
Is this some kind of talent show?
WHY did you stop me? I almost had him.
I'll take care of him myself, alright?
How do you know him?
He's my friend.
But he is a Dark one.
Dark or Light - what's the difference?
How did it happen to you?
The world is not without good people.
DAY WATCH
You'll do what I say, while you’re wearing this ring.
I feel pain.
YOU feel pain?
But we're gonna die in a day.
Sign this, please.
What is it?
A contract.
Again.
No, you don't have any contract with us yet.
Not with you.
This about renting the hall.
How much?
$1000. Per hour.
For THIS?
Have you no shame?
Times change.
Just a little longer.
Zavulon!
Egor?
What happened?
Those were your words, that only Great ones can enter the second level!
Give me a weapon! Give me!
You promised! Let me go!
A few minutes ago, next to VDNH metro-station,
the murder of a human was prevented.
A Dark one had ambushed the woman, in broad daylight.
And you arrested him?
No.
Well, "no" isn't much good!
But we have evidence.
What evidence?
The jig is up!
Who the hell is she?
Rogova, don't tell me you've never told your trainees...
about the punishment for killing people?
They can't prove a thing!
Where is your cap?
And this is all we've got, yeah?
Yeah.
What does he look like?
I can't remember, you know.
- You really can't? - Nah.
Ok, I'll pass it on to the lab - they'll make it out.
Let's go.
Anton, give me your car keys,
I haven't travelled by Metro in 49 years.
Keys? Ok.
Come on, come on.
Here.
So, how are you feeling?
How do you feel?
You need to get some food. Let's go and eat something.
Why didn't you tell me that he's your friend?
And what are we gonna do now?
Where are you going?
Maybe we should steal this damn cap?
Oh. You still like those bums.
Why, they are pure donors!
I might ask you about something.
They gave a blood license to my son.
Congratulations.
He doesn't drink at all - you know it.
The Night Watch lab is already closed.
Where do they keep the exhibits at night?
In the archive.
You have time until morning.
But how can I get in there?
As fast as you can.
He wasn't at home so I signed it instead of him.
And now I don't know, how I'm supposed to tell him.
Do you want to say that he's not innate?
No. He bit him himself.
He had an inflammation! An ambilateral inflammation!
Yea, and his mother had an inflammation, too.
Bitch!
Sorry.
That's all right.
Give him a reprieve.
I know you can do it. And I'll do all you want...
All you need.
What do I need?
It's illegal.
Do you understand?
What's to understand? How can I get that cap from Night Watch archives?
"How, how... "
Connect it to his parents!
So what, public catering, do you have anything to eat for this baby?
Go quick, quick! Hurry up!
Take it. Drink it.
You must.
Yes.
Hello? Hello, it's Galina Rogova. I'm Egor's teacher.
I'm calling because your son lost his cap.
Wrong number.
There are a lot of caps like it in Moscow.
Good girl. You'll go far. You can enter the second level of Gloom.
No, I won't go far.
I can just barely stick my hand there.
Can we order?
You already ordered!
I can't remember.
Ok.
Why are you so dirty?
Take a look at yourself.
Hello, Boris Ivanovich.
Boris Ivanovich!
What are you doing here?
We're waiting for the ravioli.
But you have class.
Really?
I forgot.
So, tomorrow...
Absolutely. At 7 o'clock.
Now I forbid you to have a personal relationship with a trainee.
It's too late, Boris Ivanovich. It's too late.
Please.
Thank you very much.
Assalam aleykum, Zoar.
Anton, she'll be a Great one soon,
but there is no room for TWO Great ones next to VDNH-metro-station.
You mean, the second Great one - is me?
No, Anton. I mean it is your son.
If he bumps into Sveta the whole world will plunge into darkness.
You're Light, Anton, but you drink a Dark beer.
Nice talking to you.
You'll need to eat, Egor. Tomorrow will be a great day for you.
Chew.
But what will be tomorrow?
Tomorrow we will have many guests. Grandma Dasha was just released.
When she'll come, she'll introduce you to Mashen'ka.
Presents. Well? What do you want?
You are too young for this.
I don't want it.
If you don't want to - we'll teach you, if you can't do it - we'll force you.
"On his deathbed, Tamerlan asked us to bury him with his fists clenched.
And his will was done."
Wrap up these ravioli for me, Zoar. I'm going home.
It's manti.
Well, wrap them anyway.
Oh, "Remarkable Lives"!
Uh-huh.
If he had MY life.
On one hand, the son who makes the world darker,
on the other side, the girlfriend who's blinding with her talents.
You know, this Tamerlan had some problems with his son too.
Zoar, what kind of problems could he have had with his son? Tell me?
His son was killed.
Maybe you should stop drinking now, Anton-jan,
if you don't want to get yourself into trouble on the way home.
You're pure gold, Zoar.
How much do I owe you?
100.
Here!
Drunk...
"However, after many long years the final resting place of Tamerlan remains unknown.
In 1941, under the academic Gerasimov,
an expedition to Samarkand was organized.
But a war hindered the expedition.
All information about that expedition was lost...
in many archives and specialty libraries devoted to Central Asia. "
"Your house is connected. "
What bullshit.
Listen carefully, Gorodetskiy.
He'll be in big trouble - he will be disincarnated.
Wrong number.
Have you no shame? After all, you're his father...
Tomorrow is Egor's birthday. Do you remember that at least?
Give him a present.
What present?
- A hat. - What hat?
A dark one.
Do you have any idea how many hats like that there are in Moscow?
I can't help you.
Me?
Yes.
Then I'll write a letter to the Inquisitor.
Write whoever you want.
We should crush you.
- Today we've got a very fierce competition.
- And the whole country is at their TVs watching soccer right now.
Here's a chance... a shot!
- And, instantly, they counterattack. A long pass...
Hey! Hey, mutt!
Heeey!
Unexpected!
Go-o-al!
Aye-yay-yay-yay!
Two 15 minute periods, then penalty time.
- We've closed the gap - 1:2. And we're on the attack again.
- Pass! Shoot it! Go-o-al! Amazing!
- The most important moment of today's match.
- It's important not to let up, not to go on the defensive.
- Keep risking, keep on their heels, but proceed with caution.
Go-o-al!
"Central Asia SPECIAL CUSTODY"
"The chalk of fate"
"I ask permission for an expedition to the city of Samarkand...
in order to open the tomb into the architectural monument Gur-Emir.
According to our investigation,
the military leader Tamerlan was buried in that tomb...
with the Chalk of Fate in his right hand. "
Gesser. 19th June, 1941. Denied.
- Into the final seconds, we are continuing to press the attack.
Goal!
- 4:2. This victory costs not only the nerves of the players,
but all of ours as well.
Goal!
- But we can relax now. 'Til next time, take care.
Oh, Ovchina.
You know, Alisa, he looked at me so strangely... it scared me.
- You mean nobody was covering you? - Covering me?
Want me to come?
Thanks, but I'll be alright.
Be careful, alright?
- Hello, Galya. Are you okay? - Hello.
Sorry, it's just that I'm very tired.
Okay.
Call me later?
You call me.
Alright. I just arrived home...
Galina!
Who's there?
Is this a joke? Who's there?
A judge.
Yeah? Who are you going to judge?
You.
741st. On the scene working. Ambulance was already here. They left a report.
Galya! Galya! Galya!
Let me through! That's my daughter! That's my daughter!
No entrance.
I dunno. They're working.
There are no injuries on her body. How do you know it's murder?
Because I know who killed her.
I'll smash your head in if you hang up again, got it?
Get Zavulon on, NOW!
He is not here.
Did you tell him it's ME?
Yes.
Who's he with?
He can't talk right now.
What the? Stop! You can't!
I did as I was asked. You PROMISED to help me.
Go back to work. Tomorrow night I'll tell you what's next.
Hi.
Don't take it too hard.
Would it kill you to knock?
Ooow! Look who's here!
Look, I can't reach your friend. She met with...
Rogova was killed.
Scum!
You know who did it.
He's lost his mind.
Last night Galya met with Gorodetskiy.
We need proof.
Do you think...
Go-go!
I...
Go!
I'll take the car, okay?
"chalk of fate"
Gur-Emir, Samarkand Tamerlan's resting place"
"book seats"
"Your order was accepted. Thank you!"
Thanks for helping your son and us.
Destroy the evidence as soon as possible.
And don't forget to wish Egor a happy birthday.
"WARNING! System error!"
Aaa...
Come on!
Alright, that's enough.
Hey, didn't you sleep well?
Why, are my eyes red?
Uh-huh. Alright, that's it. Let's go see Gesser.
For what?
Just go. Go! Go! Go!
A lot of unregistered Dark ones have appeared in the city recently.
We are checking by sector. We already checked Dmitrovka, Yaroslavka, Filie...
But Bibirevo still hasn't been cleared... like...
a horse.
A horse.
A horse still remains. 508 doesn't have enough lamps.
What's the news?
So many of them came... It was totally dark...
"Ferrous metallurgists are gathering in Moscow"
"Dark ones are gathering in Moscow"
They planning some sort of sabbath.
Ilya, do you remember Galina Rogova?
Rogova?
Yes, Rogova.
I think she is very dangerous.
She could break the Contract.
Not anymore.
This morning Galina Rogova was found dead in the entrance to her apartment.
There were no injures on her body,
cause of death: total loss of energy.
Miss! Miss!
What's the girl's name?
Mashen'ka.
Masha Rogova.
Do you know this man?
No.
May I talk with the girl. You don't mind.
Hello, Mashen'ka.
Hi.
Such a nice little turtle, isn't it?
Like a real one.
Do you know this mister?
No.
Where is your mommy?
My mommy left for a long time.
Your mommy did not leave, dear. Your mommy died.
What do you mean?
She died for good.
Granny! Granny!
What is it? What is it, little one? What is it, dear?
Granny, my mommy is dead for good.
Oh my God. My poor baby, who told you this?
A woman. She came to me and told me.
A woman? Where is she? There is nobody here.
Goodness.
It was your mother. She came to say goodbye.
As you know, we have been accused that...
there is a Light one, in Moscow, who is not familiar with the Contract,
or, even worse, is ignoring it.
That's the situation at the moment.
Any questions?
No...
Then thanks to everyone and goodbye to everyone except Semyon, Olga, Ilya and...
...Anton.
Thanks for the compliment, Boris Ivanovich.
It is my duty to conduct an internal investigation.
Write an explanation of where you were last night and...
who can provide you with an alibi.
Miss, can I have the ball?
What are you studying, student?
Biology.
Want to learn how to live without human blood?
You're cute. It's too bad you're a vampire.
Otherwise we could be friends.
But now we can't?
Well, why not...
Don't be angry. Tell me one thing...
did you see your friend, your neighbour, yesterday?
Why do you think he's my friend?
I don't blame you at all, you have the right to do whatever you want.
Because you're a Dark other.
You can even be friends with the Light ones.
Thanks, you're very witty.
Last night, Galina Rogova was killed at the entrance to her apartment.
What does that have to do with me?
She has a 5-year-old daughter.
Last night I saw her with Gorodetskiy.
Thanks.
What do you want?
Last night Rogova met with Gorodetskiy.
How do you know?
There was a witness.
M-m-m... the young vampire.
And how do you know?
Come here, I miss you.
Get me Gorodetskiy.
At the time when Rogova was murdered, Gorodetskiy was in the archives.
Well.
So, he's got an alibi.
But he'll never admit it, of course.
Then... Then we will have to give him to the Dark ones.
And what will they do with him?
I don't know, but they won't take him alive.
Do you have a plan?
Yes!
Have you seen the chief?
Sit down.
I'm sorry, Olga, but I have to do it.
Do what?
I understand.
But I DON'T understand...
What the? What are you doing?
Sorry, Anton, but you would never have agreed to it.
Anton?
Everything will be ok.
Hi. May I see Gesser?
Drop dead with your Gesser!
Anton, come back. You haven't been dismissed yet.
What are we gonna do about the voice?
It's easy. Just try, you'll get it.
Yeah, right.
Hold on.
Hold on? You made me a transvestite...
What's not to like?
How do you poor men even walk? Now, Anton, remember I don't smoke.
Your lipstick got smeared. Should I fix it?
I'll manage.
Remember: don't put anything in your pockets, you have a purse for that.
Don't slouch, don't slouch, you're a woman!
Tell me, why is my ass wiggling?
A remaining reflex.
- YOU! - Shh... quiet..
Hi, Boris Ivanovich.
Hello, hello.
I'm coming, I'm coming...
How long must I live like this?
A day or two or three. Until we find the murderer.
And where am I gonna live?
Just call one of the guys - work it out.
Ah, with Semyon!
Semyon! May I live with you for a while?
- Starting when? - Today.
No, no chance.
Well, sorry then.
Maybe it'd be better with Svetlana?
Good idea.
But what should I tell her?
You can tell that you can't sleep here because Boris Ivanovich snores all night.
I snore?
Alright. Now you know how to identify a subject...
on the other side of a physical barrier.
Svetlana, please, show us the magic of introscopy.
Who is standing behind the door?
It is Anton Gorodetskiy.
Hi.
I'm terribly sorry, I...
Please, come in, Olga.
You honour us with your presence.
We are just studying the basics of introscopy.
Maybe you'll show us something, since you're already here.
Just a little? A little something?
Maybe next time. I don't have time right now.
I'm only here for a moment.
Could I take Svetlana with me?
What, you smoke now?
Poor Sveta. What in the world will she do with him?
Thanks.
Let's go.
Listen, Anton will be coming soon.
He's not coming.
How did you know that?
He’s very busy right now.
But we were going to go to a restaurant together.
Well, sorry. It's not a good time for restaurants.
Let's go, then I'll explain.
Can I ask you something?
Uh-huh. Ask.
Do you like Anton?
Do you?
He's kinda weird.
I get the feeling he's afraid of me.
Well, no, not like a woman but... not afraid, but like... like...
He keeps his distance.
Yes.
Yes, like that.
It's not surprising - you'll be a great magician in the future,
but he'll make third category at best.
First of all - I'm a woman,
and I don't care about his category.
I love him, and...
Ah! Watch it!
You're crazy!
You know it's not my business, but I want to tell you - do you hear me?
I think he loves... he loves you too! Very much!
It's just that he's afraid. He is afraid that someday...
you'll end up too far away!
But some day we all end up too far away!
But now I'm SO CLOSE.
Come on, come on! You're close but only for now. Come on.
Close now.
Ladies, are you alive?
We'll give you a hand. Hang in there.
After that I called him at night.
Come in. He wasn't home.
Then I called on his cell-phone and he hung up on me.
Well... maybe he is busy?
Or maybe he already has someone?
He hasn't had a woman in 12 years.
Well, then, that means it's just... it's just... complexes.
Biocomplex - a truly magical way to slow down the aging process,
and increase your sexual desires.
- Wow, such a... - Thank you.
Why are you looking at me like that?
I'm going to take a shower. You can put on the kettle, if you'd like.
Listen, why hasn't he had a woman in 12 years?
Kinda weird.
Why oh why...
You know, Sveta.
Oh, how do I explain this? Jesus.
Olya!
Sometimes there are moments...
Olya!
when suddenly your life changes forever.
Olya!
Why forever?
- Olya! - What?
Bring me a towel, please. It's in the closet.
I'm not Olga, I'm...
What? What did you say? I can't hear you.
What are you doing?
I'm not Olga - I'm Anton. I love you.
What?
What's with you?
I'm not Olga. I'm Anton.
We switched bodies.
How dare you? You... you bastard! How could you do this?!
You set me up! Get out! Get out of my sight!
Get out of here! How... How dare you? You used me!
How dare you!?
You're crazy! And... get out! Leave and close the door!
Oh!
- Ah, he almost had it. Sergey Federov just missed it.
- But he still has the puck... A pass! Miss...
Go, go, go. Come on, come on. Go!
We're out on the attack.
- They've fallen behind. The game is in our hands.
Come on, come on. Go, go, go!
Retards, yeah?
What are they doing? What are they doing?
I guess someone promised to take care of your body.
I didn't hurt it, did I? The organism remains in a mint condition.
For every 100 grams of weight you put on she'll tear out 100 grams out of YOU.
The bottom one is broken.
I'm saying, "Hi"...
Hi, little vampire.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Good boys!
Men can think of anything to get out of their promises.
What promises?
I thought you were going to take me out to dinner.
But I'm not allowed...
I need to see your son.
Kostya.
Hi, Kostya.
Hi.
Ready to go?
Who is she?
Dad!
Have you seen Gorodetsky? We can't seem to find him.
Too bad.
We think that he swapped bodies... with a woman.
That is so typical...
To you. To most quickly solving your problem.
Look - a Dark one.
How is he a Dark one?
That boy at VDNH - you two are very close, right?
You help him so much...
Is that your mission - to split us up?
Once again I have to say, you're a fool.
He's off to suck someone's blood...
Or to cast evil spells.
What do you want from me?
Would you be able to recognize him in a different body?
I don't know. I never tried.
If he were in my body, for example...
Are you married?
Yes. Your car is UNREAL.
I should go.
Just a minute.
Don't take the wrong door.
The door with the picture of a boy - not yours.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Ow... Damn it.
I've been framed.
Now they have hard evidence.
But I didn’t kill him... It's a coincidence.
No, it's not a coincidence, it's provocation.
But ANTON wasn't there.
They figured you out. You weren't supposed to leave home.
Now they have the right to do whatever they want with you.
Why aren't we moving?
You decided to play with toy soldiers?
Zavulon!
Can I help you, Zavulon?
I accuse, on the charge of murder,
an agent of the Night Watch - Anton Gorodetsky.
Okay, I will try to find him.
We'll just take him now.
He is not here.
Our murder suspect...
resides in that woman's body.
What are you doing? What are you doing?
You don't have the right to resist.
Why aren't you doing anything?
Why aren't YOU doing anything?
No!
Stop! We don't have the right to resist.
If you break the Contract, they'll kill you.
22nd.
What does the bus have to do with anything?
Go! Go! Go!
GO.
An actor, yeah?
If you do not produce proof...
in exoneration of Gorodetskiy by dawn,
we will grant a license for his execution.
An inquiry from the director of the Day Watch has already arrived.
Here's a copy.
We will not hand him over.
I am lodging an official protest.
If you refuse to comply, there will be war.
This is blatant provocation by the Day Watch.
And in THIS war, the Great ones will not take your side.
The requests of the Day Watch are reasonable.
Your protest will be denied.
Hello.
Alisher? It's Gorodetsky from Moscow.
Anton, hi. What's going on?
Nothing. Alisherchik, I'm flying to Samarkand.
Be a pal, I need to get into Tamerlan's grave.
But no one can know. Will you help?
Hello? Did you say something?
Yea, not to you, but yea.
Yea, I'll do it.
Alright, come here. We'll organize everything.
Anton, tell Semyon I said Hi..
See you.
Salaam aleykum, Djavlan-akya!
Salam.
It's me. Some man- "Karadetsky" - is flying in from Moscow.
So, Gorodetsky is going to Samarkand? Thank you, Mahmoud.
What, am I going to Samarkand too?
Wait.
I'm afraid the plane won't make it.
What do you mean?
Maybe it would be better, if the parrot goes instead of you.
Right.
And this...
What is it?
It's his car...
...to the airport.
Yes.
- Olya. - Yea, how are you?
Bad. I need my body back.
We'll meet in half an hour at Domodedovo airport.
Let's take the stairs?
Let's just take the elevator?
I need my body back.
Are you going somewhere?
Uh-huh. Give me my body back.
You mean you don't like mine?
No, I like it, but I'm afraid I'll damage it.
What?
Just a second!
Stop staring - come in.
Maybe we'll take the stairs?
What's this?
It's a belt.
It's a weapon.
The purpose of your trip?
Sight-seeing of architectural monuments in the ancient capital of Uzbekistan.
Listen, I think I'm already late.
What's in Samarkand?
But your return-ticket is for tomorrow morning.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
May I ask, how many monuments do you plan to see tonight?
One.
No sleeping at work!
Excuse me, is this flying to Samarkand?
Thank you.
Where are you going?
Sit down, please. We're preparing for takeoff.
Get off the plane.
- Miss, sit down. - Alright, alright. Go ahead.
Do you have any of those barbarishkas?
Yes. Just sit down.
Thank you so much.
I'm not letting you out of my sight.
- Buckle up. - Yeah.
Tower, this is flight 593. All systems go.
593 you are clear for takeoff from runway 3.
Conditions are fair with a headwind at 7 m/s.
Taking off.
If you open that grave, it will start a war.
You're not going anywhere.
I'll open it very carefully. Just a little nudge with my nail.
Nope, we're not going anywhere.
- What was that? - Everything looks normal.
We're flying.
Nope, isn't happening.
593, what's the matter?
I don't know. I'm following the procedure, but we're not taking off.
People!
People! Everyone wants to fly to Samarkand, right?
Yes!
They all want to fly. Do you understand?
We're off.
- Commander. We're over speed. - We're taking off!
Glory be.
593, what's your status?
I didn't call you.
Why don't we do something?
Want some?
No.
Once upon a time, one of our officers fell into grave danger.
He broke the Contract.
And when his execution seemed inevitable...
this girl came to his defence...
Hey, it's Olga.
After that, of course, he exonerated himself and Inquisition released him.
As to that girl-magician...
She hasn't changed a bit.
...when we - the Light ones - needed her so much, she was condemned.
That's a sad story, Boris Ivanovich.
I was just bait.
She, a Great one, was the real target.
There is no chalk in Tamerlan's right fist.
How do you know that? Were you there?
In 1941. Boris was in trouble and I really needed the Chalk.
So, I organized an expedition and went there with some archaeologists.
In Samarkand an old man joined us. His name was Zoar.
I warned him that if I opened the grave, it would cause a war.
But I was sure that...
when the Chalk was in my hands, I would be able to correct everything.
When we opened the grave, there was an inscription:
"I held the whole world in my fist, but I can't take it with me. "
He didn't have the chalk.
But what was Zoar doing there?
He had worked in Gorkom.
And what did he do with Tamerlan?
Well, Zoar was his right-hand man.
His RIGHT hand?
Oh, Zoar. Oh, you old dog.
Olya. Turn the plane around.
I know where the chalk is. It's Zoar who has it.
Zoar...
Give me the chalk.
Here.
No, you don't get it - I need the magic chalk.
That's the magic one.
Where can I write with it?
Here, on this board.
Does it help?
Every day.
What do you write?
Whatever you want.
Egor -
How did you... How did you get here?
I was in the neighbourhood and I decided to drop by.
In the neighbourhood? In the neighbourhood, eh?
In the neighbourhood? Egor, it works! Do you understand? It works!
What works, dad?
The chalk! The chalk works!
My dear boy! Say, why are you so cold?
Why are you so cold? You're freezing. Hold on.
Do you want something to eat? Huh? We'll make something for you.
Zoar! Come on, come on! Make something to eat! I've got a son!
Sit down, sit down, sit down. Come on. It works!
Give me your pants! We'll wash them too.
But I don't have any others.
Where are you going to go so late at night?
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Forget it. If we are going to wash, we might as well wash everything.
Oh! Excuse me, I’m looking for your neighbour.
You're not the only one.
Thank you.
Be careful, Svetlana.
You're a vampire?
Yeah I'm a vampire! Look!
Forgive him. We didn't break any laws.
I didn't say you did.
Here are his registration papers.
I... I... I didn't say you broke the Contract.
Everything in the fridge is legal: milk, cheese, potatoes...
I'm sorry...
Dad, go away! Stop degrading yourself!
Hello?
Hello, Anton?
Who is it?
It's me, Svetlana.
Svetlana? You know he has a family, a child.
Please, don't call him anymore.
Egor, here.
It's pilaw - eat it with your hands.
So, is it tasty?
Do you want to come eat with us?
With "us"?
With me. With mom.
Egor, I can't go with you. I have another life.
Egor, you know I...
You'll come by yourself!
Zoar, why isn't the chalk working?
I wrote where you told me to...
Because I'm writing my own fate here.
150 roubles for the pilaw.
Your fate is somewhere else.
And you can't change the fate of others at all.
Every man answers only to his own destiny.
Don't you remember where you trifled with fate?
Why didn't you tell me before?
You didn't ask.
Ask, didn't ask...
I'm sorry, Anton-jan.
What happened?
He stole the chalk.
Hello.
Excuse me, may I speak with Egor?
Are you nuts?
It's 1:00 am. Egor is sleeping.
Hey, chief! Get me to VDNH!
We found him, Zavulon!
Crush him!
Idiot! I want him alive!
Just drive him around, guys!
Anton!
Is anybody here? Anton!
Zoar!
There is nobody here.
What?
This is his phone, isn't it?
But why is it broken?
So, the Dark ones are looking for the chalk too. The game is afoot.
What the hell did you do?
Which station is this?
Well, I'm off.
What the hell is wrong with you?
Freeze! Hey!
Stop!
Freeze!
Who were you talking to?
I don't really know, but he said never call to him anymore.
It's Egor.
Why did he come anyway?
He stole the chalk.
Where are you going?
Ow! I'll be right back.
- Do you remember Egor's address? - VDNH.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Take her along.
Sveta!
She's run off.
What, you're freezing so you sit here to warm up?
Drive anywhere...
Gotcha.
Mister Zavulon, why are we Dark?
Because the darkness hides our imperfections.
And there is no human without imperfections.
It allows us to do whatever we want,
to be exactly what we are.
The darkness gives us love.
Look here, what I found, mister Zavulon.
It's the Chalk of Fate.
Hello?
- Zavulon. - I'm listening.
Do you have the chalk?
No.
You don't have the right to touch it.
And I'm not touching it.
What's that party you've got there? You didn't think to invite me?
No. But I will send you a photo.
Slow down, Semyon.
Gather all members at the Kosmos hotel.
Where are you going, Boris Ivanovich?
I need to change.
Alisa?
With the chalk you can correct your mistakes.
Well, keep it then.
But what about you?
I don't need it.
You don't make mistakes?
I do, but I don't regret them.
What should I do with it?
Give it to Alisa.
What does she regret?
Well, what can a woman regret?
Love.
Are you sure you're doing the right thing?
I don't want to be like you,
to be afraid of both your friends and your foes.
To afraid of the phone.
Who said that?
If you ask me - I fear nobody.
It's possible to remain human in our situation.
"Human", dad?
Do you mean you can make me a real boy?
No, but...
Listen to me!
Kostya! Kostya!
Son! Listen!
Alisa, are you ready?
Yes.
- We're starting. - I'm on my way.
Don't touch the ring. It hurts me.
Why did you come here?
Am I not allowed?
Come in.
Close the door.
Hi.
I came for you.
Zavulon...
I'm coming.
I'm coming!
- Good evening. - You'd better come back later.
I should go.
Kostya, wait. Wait. Listen to me, I can explain.
There's no need.
He knows everything about me.
I can't do anything. He feels me. Can you understand? No?
I can't get it off.
I'll help you.
No.
He'll kill you.
I'm not afraid.
I am.
I already told you... Can't it wait?
I told you...
Let's go, let's go...
Who is that?
Gorodetsky's neighbour. He can recognize him even in a different body.
M-m-m... Where's daddy?
Uh...
We're sorry, your call cannot be completed as dialled.
Does that hurt?
Come on, come on. Come on, come on, come on, come on.
You have no right! You're an outlaw!
You're an outlaw, have you heard?
You need to dry off.
You're an outlaw. Look, it's not personal, I'm just following orders.
I know, I know, I know.
I have orders. Gosha is good bird...
Gosha was going to the Kosmos hotel for some boy's birthday party.
What... What are you thinking?
What are you gonna do?
No. Nothing good will come of it.
Everybody knows your ugly face!
Well, of course, I don't like this way...
Could you tell me where the birthday party is?
It's on the top floor by the elevator.
Kolya. The Parrot is coming to see you.
Well, how are you?
Come on, go quickly. Don't be late.
Vityok, wait.
Give me your coat.
"Safety officer - Vityok"
Hi, Vityok.
Has it started?
Do I look like Vityok to you?
So, you're not Vityok?
Well then where is Vityok?
Egor!
Who's there?
Egor!
Happy birthday! Happy birthday!
Quiet, quiet! Let his father say a few words!
It's his birthday. Or did you forget?
Give him a drink!
Come on, say something.
He's been waiting for you. What's with you?
I know, you Light ones know how to do it! Come on!
I...
I... wish you... good health and good happiness, Egor.
That's all?
And that all will be well in your life.
And later I have a few other things to say, Egor.
Let's speak in private.
No, say it right now - "later" will be too late.
Ok.
I wish you only a one thing.
I wish you the knowledge of how to forgive. And whatever they say...
Bravo!
Forgive your dad - he's very tired.
They poisoned him.
Hey! Let me pass!
Vitya, on the left slowing down the 548. You see it?
Let me by!
That's what vinaigrette is for, sonny.
Take a bite.
What is it?
Are the ingredients important? Or the effect?
You destroyed my life, granny!
Well, you destroyed mine too.
Me?
Yes! Because of you, I've been living...
in the cell, as a frog, for the last 12 years!
So what are we going to do with you?
Is that what you came for? Have you forgotten, my dear?
The chalk?
You know, your hut was torn down!
They tore it down, but one little wall survived.
Come here. Vinaigrette. You want some vinaigrette?
Here! Nooo. Bring me the chalk and then I'll give it. Do we have a deal?
She won't eat anything if she doesn't know you.
Is she trained?
Yep.
- She doesn't eat? - She doesn't eat.
But I do!
Good boy!
Everything!
Good boy! O-o-o-o...
I'm gonna eat!
I'm gonna eat everything!
The enemies' whirlwinds are waving over us, Dark forces are violently oppressing us,
'Til the fateful battle...
He's here, somewhere. He's close, I feel it.
But we will rise up with pride and courage...
A-ya!
What's his problem, eh?
You fool!
Eh? FOOL!
Stop this, Semyon! Get a grip!
What are you doing, Semyon? Don't!
Drive faster - we're late.
Should we call the Inquisition?
No, not yet.
Not everyone is ready yet.
Big Zavulon, dear!
Let's have a drink?
Well, when you put it like that...
Bruderschaft style...
You've brought this upon yourself, Gorodetsky.
What if I'm turning you over to the Inquisition...
Me? To the Inquisition?
For what?
I didn't kill...
You know it.
Then who did it?
You know how it is in the mysteries - some gardener...
Or a butcher.
Valeriy Sergeevich, fancy meeting you here!
I just came for my son.
He came for his son, too!
They gave Kostya a license.
Congratulations!
But you know - he is not the sort.
What sort is he?
He is inoffensive. Like his mother was. She was a real human.
But I think, he takes after his father.
Stop! Dark gentlemen! Do you know who killed Galina Rogova?
She was killed by...
Was killed by...
- But why did I have to kill them? - THEM?
That's right, why?
Why did THEY have to die?
Oy! Oy, oy!
And do you want to know where he got this idea?
Dad!
By this very knife.
I wanted you to be a human so much.
Nothing in the world can excuse the breach of the Great Contract.
Do you admit your guilt?
Yes. I admit it.
Say goodbye.
It's alright.
The Inquisition hereby dismisses murder charges against Anton Gorodetsky.
You are free to go.
Thanks, it's great to be here.
Dad!
I'll explain everything...
Was it you who called them?
Me?
Zavulon! You promised!
Go away, father. You're spoiling our fun.
He didn't do it by his own will! He was coerced!
The one who coerced him...
Tango!
Quiet, quiet. Give me the chalk.
Come on.
Let me go, bastard!
"Someone is losing...
and someone is finding.
Someone is leaving...
and someone is arriving. "
She's here.
Everyone is assembled.
Stop her, mister Zavulon.
She can't be stopped.
...killed?
Melodrama is not my cup of tea, Egor.
Then I'll do it myself.
She is stronger than you. Think about it.
Don't think.
- Svetochka! - Anton!
Go home now. I'll explain everything later.
Please, go home.
No offence.
I'm just fine.
Please, go home.
You see, mister Zavulon? He doesn't love her any more. He became a Dark one.
No, my sweet Egor, he's just darkening.
And what are we gonna do?
Think, Egor, think.
Yesterday, in the Gloom, I stabbed her with a needle.
Now I can drink from her.
125th, 3 minutes out.
320th, 7 minutes out.
34th, 6 minutes out.
540th, 2 minutes out. 540th!
518th!
118th, 1 minute out.
Under no circumstances start without us! Maintain your positions!
I repeat: maintain your positions!
Are we surrounded?
She isn't answering.
Sveta! Sveta, it's me. Look at me. Don't close your eyes, you hear?
I'm losing you, Sveta. I'm losing you.
Be cool, be cool. Yes. Come on, help me. Help me and we'll get you out of there.
Man, stop this!
Come on, breathe, breathe...
Learn to drive!
Good girl, good girl!
Get up.
Get up slowly. Sveta, get up.
Come on, talk to me. Talk.
Tell me about something.
That's a good girl. Breathe, breathe, breathe. Yeah.
You're on your feet. Good girl.
Beautiful, Sveta! You're beautiful!
Come on, come on, come on! Get up, get up!
- Sveta! - Yes!
Hello?
Hello, Olya?
Yes, we're on the way. Wait for us.
I found Anton.
He is drunk and now he doesn't want to go anywhere.
Go practice.
They poisoned him?
We'll need to get you out of here, it's a trap, provocation!
Don't try taking on Egor! Do you hear me?
I hear.
Do you hear me?
Yes, I hear you.
Who do you want?
I need Anton Gorodetskiy.
I need him too.
No, I just need to talk to him.
Nooo, you’re lying. You came to take him away from me, right?
No.
He loves you.
He loves you too.
And now ladies and gentlemen! It's time for the main event of our party!
We have been waiting, as the saying goes, for a thousand years!
And now we've got a new Great one!
I'm not going to fight you.
You have no other choice.
Buckle up.
We'll start a battle and WE will win this time!
That's the big one.
But if even one drop of any Dark one's blood is spilled, the Contract is broken.
And then we will start a battle! And we will win!
That's it, we're here.
We are always hiding. Isn't it enough?
Who are the real criminals? Us or them?
So, what's the problem with us, guys? We know every one of them by sight!
His big, ugly, Dark face!
Ordinary people believe in us! Who else can protect them if not us?
Nobody else has the power to do anything about it!
Because Fate is in OUR hands right now!
Everyone freeze! This is provocation!
Darkness will fall, and nothing will be able to escape it...
What if they really do fight over there?
Fine, I'm leaving.
Try it.
Blood! Blood!
What's with you?
Blood! Blood! Blood!
It's done.
What's "done"?
It has begun.
I didn't want to.
Shall we move?
What about Gesser?
CHARGE!
Hurray!
Everybody, evacuate the floor, don't panic!
This is an emergency evacuation! There is a fire on the floor!
Get out! Everybody! Fire! Leave the building!
Hey, what's happened?
Fire! Fire! Go out! Come on! Come on, you've gotta get out!
Get out! Fire!
Miss, what happened? Miss! What happened, young man?
Anton. Anton, where are you? Anton!
Anton!
It's a stampede. Everyone is panicking. People are trying to escape.
They're coming back!
Fire on the floor. Stay calm.
Miss... What... Young man... What's happened?
Yes. Yes, yes. I'm coming, I'm coming.
Are you photographing it?
It's pitch black.
It's the end of the world.
Maybe they'll get another chance?
Stepan!
Find Alisa and get the chalk from her.
Where is Alisa?
Alisa? Over there...
Alisa!
Alisa! Wait!
I'm not a boy running from you, you know? What are you doing anyway?
Freeze! Freeze!
Run. I said, run!
Freeze!
Quiet...
Stay! Stay! Stay where you are!
Settle down, quiet, quiet, quiet.
Well, can you lead me to Alisa?
Come on, come on. Lead me to her.
Kostya.
Kostya, I didn't want that. Kostya...
I ruined everything...
"KOSTYA IS ALIVE"
Give it to me. Give it.
Give it to me. Give.
Nooo. No. You scum! Get off me!
You can't bring him back.
I'll fix everything up!
You'll fix nothing. Give me the chalk.
Why?
Because it's not your fault at all! Give me the chalk!
Then, whose fault is it?
What difference does it make? It doesn't matter!
It's all my fault.
Anton... Anton...
I'm here...
Wait for me. I'll be back, be back. I'll be back.
Anton, I can't see.
Let him go! Let him go! I won't let you take him!
Do you hear me? I won't let you take him!
Don't leave me, Anton!
Hold on! Hold on!
The glass!
Where are you taking him?
The glass!
The glass is falling!
What have you done, Anton?
I found the Chalk, Boris Ivanovich.
That house was demolished.
It was, but... But one little wall survived.
Anton, run. Run now. Quickly.
This camera has a short exposure.
Thank you, Boris Ivanovich.
"NO"
Moscow, 1992
Well? You agree?
Well...
No. I'll try to deal with it on my own.
The human way.
"No". It isn't much good.
Forgive me, please.
Can I bum a cigarette?
You don't have any?
I don't smoke.
He doesn't remember.
Now what?
That's all. He became human.
He doesn't remember.
Yes he does!
Don't tell him!
Don't interfere!
There is no fate!
Miss!
It's FATE!
Excuse me, please. Have we met before?
Maybe.
Really?
A Timur BEKMAMBETOV film
DAY WATCH THE CHALK OF FATE
My word.
We are surrounded?
Look at them! Freakin Dandies!
It's a really good thing.
Eh!
