Empire V

Meet the Filmmaker

Victor Ginzburg

Writer/Director
Synopsis
Set in modern-day Moscow, “Empire V” is a metaphysical vampire story and a reflection of a world ruled by the cult of beauty, money and blood. A completely original take on the age-old genre while employing ground-breaking visual effects to portray an unknowable level of reality. A dark satire on contemporary culture and global capitalism and a universal coming of age story of an average young man challenged by a Faustian gift of power and knowledge, forced to make his way in a post-moral world.
Based on a novel by Russia's leading contemporary writer Victor Pelevin.

“This is the MATRIX of vampire cinema.” – FANGORIA

“...the action of Nightwatch with the philosophical underpinnings of The Matrix sequels” - BLOODY DISGUSTING

One of Empire V’s most rewarding elements is its constant debunking of vampire lore.” ScreenDaily

“…bold visuals and careful balance of intellectual rigor and hedonistic entertainment.”
