Young traffic police officer Artyom, trying to hide his relationship with his boss's daughter, runs away from the girl's apartment and gets into a freak accident. After fleeing the scene, he confronts the owner of the Volga he dented, a principled retiree, in his office. His futile attempts to evade justice deprive Artyom of everything, but they lead him to the most important thing: the ability to take responsibility for his actions.

Katya is completely disappointed in men, and Sasha can't live a day without a new woman. Chance made them neighbors who couldn't get along. Deciding to reform the self-confident womanizer, Katya uses all means to turn his life into a living nightmare. However, playing with fire can be expensive, because it's only one step from hate to love, even if you don't believe in love.

A Russian family's Turkish vacation turns chaotic when they can't afford to return home. Pretending to be wealthy to impress old rivals, they dodge hotel staff while living on the edge. Tensions rise as they navigate their predicament.

The Night of the Crystal Rose is inspired by my love for the Italian horror films from the 70’s giallo. A particular attention to style, an expressive music and a certain kitsch - our short film is a playful homage to the films of such masters as Dario Argento and Mario Bava.
