    Storyline

    Edit
    The vampires Louise, Charlotte and Nora arrive in Berlin after attacking the passengers and crew of an airplane in a flight to Paris. The leader Louise has been looking for centuries for her missed love and Charlotte misses her daughter that she saw in 1923 for the last time. Meanwhile, the smalltime pickpocket Lena steals a Russian mobster and is chased by Detective Tom. When Lena goes to a nightclub, the lesbian Louise believes that Lena is the love of her life and transforms her into a vampire. Lena initially feels lost with the transformation, but sooner she joins the trio of vampires in their nightlife. When the pack of vampires attacks a group of criminals, the police department investigates the case and hunts the women without knowing the risks that they are taking. Meanwhile the lonely Tom and the Lena fall in love with each other; but the unrequited love of Louise for Lena jeopardizes the couple. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

    Edit
    • Trivia
      According to Dennis Gansel, the vampires each represents a time in German history he thought where a high point Louise represents the lat 1700's, Charlotte the 1920's and the golden age of German films and Nora the 1990's after the fall of the Berlin wall.
    • Goofs
      In the montage sequence in the beginning Louise's face is (inexpertly) photoshopped into Menzel's Flute Concert of Frederick the Great. Actually, the person sitting in this position in the painting is Frederick's sister Wilhelmine.
    • Quotes

      Nora: Humans break so easily.

    • Crazy credits
      Opening and closing credits are white initially, but just before fading out out, they turn blood-red.

    Interesting
    Interesting vampire movie. Reasonably original and edgy. Starts and develops well but loses its way at the end.

    Solid performances all round.
