The summer film club program will open with a screening of Timur Bekmambetov's "Night Watch". One of the first urban fantasy films in Russian distribution, the movie immediately became a cult classic.
In 2000s Moscow, at night you can encounter dark mages, vampires, and other dark forces. But on their trail comes the Night Watch, whose purpose is to maintain the balance between good and evil. Breaking this balance leads to destruction, wars, revolutions, and universal catastrophes. The "light" Konstantin Khabensky hunts a vampire played by Ilya Lagutenko, while the stunning "dark" Zhanna Friske lives her one and only life to the fullest.
On a summer evening in 2026, film club curator Sergey Sdobnov, together with the author of the Telegram channel "Cinema with Dry White Wine" and chief editor of "Rules of Life" Erna Asatryan, will discuss with guests how people talked about justice in the 2000s, where the line between light and darkness lies, why "Night Watch" is remembered by different generations, and how fantasy allows us to look at our lives from the outside, noticing things we previously overlooked.
To participate in the film club, simply purchase a museum ticket. All guests will also have the opportunity to explore the exhibition "Anatoly Zverev. Open Storage" before the screening.

We recommend travelling to Mayakovskaya metro station. The walk to the AZ Museum will take around five minutes. After leaving the station, turn first to the right into the alley, then moving forward, at the first intersection, turn left to 2nd Tverskaya-Yamskaya street. Walk a few meters. AZ Museum will be on your right.

There are paid parking spaces on either side of 2nd Tverskaya-Yamskaya street or in the nearest alleys. Parking is limited, and on weekends and public holidays, the parking lots may be full.
