Jude Law and Joseph Fiennes star in this war drama directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud. During the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942, political officer Danilov (Fiennes) sees young army recruit Vassili Zaitsev (Law) in action and realises that he is just what the Russian people need to inspire them in their fight against the German army. Zaitsev is a natural with a rifle and Danilov arranges for him to be transferred to a sniper unit where his actions will be publicised, thus making him a national hero. However, Zaitsev soon begins to feel he cannot live up to Danilov's expectations and to make matters worse, he and Danilov both fall for the same woman, Tania (Rachel Weisz). Meanwhile, the Germans find out about Zaitsev and bring in their own top sniper, Konig (Ed Harris), to engage the young Russian in a deadly battle of wits.
