She puts them up in her garage, she takes the child under her wing and the weather is glorious. Ali, a man of formidable size and strength, gets a job as a bouncer in a nightclub. He comes to the aid of Stephanie during a nightclub brawl. Aloof and beautiful, Stéphanie seems unattainable, but in his frank manner Ali leaves her his phone number anyway.

When Ali sees her next, Stephanie is confined to a wheel chair: she has lost her legs and quite a few illusions.

Set in the South two years before the Civil War, DJANGO UNCHAINED stars Academy Award®-winner Jamie Foxx as Django, a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz). Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive. Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South’s most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago. Django and Schultz’s search ultimately leads them to Calvin Candie (Academy Award®-nominee Leonardo DiCaprio), the proprietor of “Candyland,” an infamous plantation where slaves are groomed by trainer Ace Woody (Kurt Russell) to battle each other for sport. Exploring the compound under false pretenses, Django and Schultz arouse the suspicion of Stephen (Academy Award®-nominee Samuel L. Jackson), Candie’s trusted house slave. Their moves are marked, and a treacherous organization closes in on them. If Django and Schultz are to escape with Broomhilda, they must choose between independence and solidarity, between sacrifice and survival…

Inspired by works of Anatole France. According to Oriental legends, Talmud and the medieval books of Cabala, Lilith was not created from Adam's rib like Eve but from clay like he himself. Lilith wasn't stained by Original Sin. She has no soul, and she is immortal. Lilith assumes different names, she can change her appearance and take possession of men against their will. Once it's accomplished, she leaves her victims forever, marking them for either spiritual, or physical death. Whatever she does is neither Good nor Evil. She is made of an altogether different matter. The first line of the story is set in the Renaissance era (1664), where Theophilius (Ville Haapasalo), an art dealer from Riga, sets sail to his old business partner Borgraph (Yuri Tsurilo). He becomes possessed bythe mystical housekeeper Nida (Olga Shepitskaya) who, in some strange way, looks similar to the woman from an old painting he is going to sell. The second part jumps to the 19th century (1883) to be set in Russian Empire and France. The young aristocrat Ari (Danila Kozlovsky) hurries to his mentor Safrak (Lembit Ulfsak) to confess his sins. His passion for the mysterious Persian beauty Leila (Anna Azarova) has led to madness of his good friend Paul (Regnars Vaivars) and suicide of his own bride. After hearing his confession priest's actions seemstrange. And the last part of the movie takes place nowadays, in Riga (1990), where a middle-aged installation artist Franz (Aleksey Serebryakov) is lost somewhere in-between fantasies, artifacts and real life events. He is avoiding to fall into relationships and does not understand the meaning of his existence. Will he manage to withstand the temptation of "The Daughter of Lilith" – young gypsy Lola?
