The Ghost

A novelist struggling with writer's block enlists the aid of an assassin for some inspiration -- fully unaware that he is being set up to take the blame for a murder.

Suffering from serious writer's block, novelist Anton Prachenko (Konstantin Khabensky) finds new inspiration when he winds up housing killer Mikhail (Vladimir Mashkov). Closely observing his new roommate, Prachenko finds the material he's been seeking. But he's completely blind to the fact that Mikhail is watching him carefully, too -- with a plan to frame Prachenko for one of his murders. Karen Oganesyan directs this tense thriller from Russia.
