 Inspired
by a true story and set against the siege of Stalingrad during
World War II, this is the epic tale of a young Russian sharpshooter,
Vassili Zaitsev (Jude Law), who becomes a legend when a savvy
political officer makes him the hero of his propaganda campaign.
Their friendship is threatened when both men fall in love with
Tania Chernova (Rachel Weisz), a beautiful female soldier. As
the battle for the city rages, Vassili faces his ultimate challenge
when the Nazi command dispatches its most elite marksman Major
Konig (Ed Harris) to hunt down and kill the man who has become
the hope of all Russia. Based on the book "Enemy at the
Gates" by William Craig.
