Lena Bach is a main heroine from the film We are the Night.
== Biography ==
Lena is a street thief who lives with her mother in a shabby apartment in a poor district of Berlin. One day she steals from a Russian pimp, but gets involved in a police operation and is followed by police officer Tom Serner. However, Lena can narrowly escape him at a bridge.
The evening of the next day, she goes to a night club. There she meets the vampire Louise. She immediately falls in love with Lena and bites her after first flirting with her. Lena is irritated by the bite and flees the bar. But in the course of the following hours she also turns into a vampire. The following night she visits this nightclub again and confronts Louise with the question of what it would have done to her. She also meets two other vampire women, Charlotte and Nora.
Louise explains to her that Lena is now a vampire and needs blood to live from now on. Lena doesn't want to believe that, but the three vampires bring her to a group of Russian criminals and pimps. When one of them beats Lena badly and presumably tries to rape her, Lena's new vampire powers awaken and she defeat him effortlessly. At that moment the three other vampire women come and kill all the criminals there, except for one.
After seeing her new powers, Lena accepts that she is now a vampire too. Louise is very rich and offers her a pompous and luxurious life. Lena asks the others about other vampires. She learns that all vampires in the world are women. The male vampires were killed two hundred years before the plot.
After Lena has enjoyed her new life for a few nights, Louise suddenly kisses her on the mouth and Lena notices that Louise is in love with her. Conversely, however, she does not share these feelings. A short time later, she goes to her mother to say goodbye to her before she finally returns to her new life. She also meets Tom again. He has fallen in love with her and invites her on a date. Lena has also fallen in love with him, but she knows that the jealous Louise is watching her and can pose a threat to Tom, which is why she cancels the date.
Another night later, the four women break into an amusement park to hold a secret celebration. They meet two night watchmen who work there. Charlotte and Nora kill the two men while Louise just watches. Lena is appalled by the cruelty and brutality of her three new companions and wants to break away from them, but doesn't know how to do it. Looking for help, she calls Tom, but breaks off the call.
The next day, a police task force attacked the hotel in which the four women lived. Charlotte can kill many of the police officers, but Nora dies in daylight, which is deadly for vampires. However, the other three women are able to flee for the time being. Lousie confronts Lena about luring the police in, but Lena says that they kill people every night and that it will become noticeable at some point. Louise wants to leave the city and flee to Moscow.
But before the escape begins, Charlotte also dies in the sunlight. Lena drives to Tom in a hurry because she is looking for consolation. He now knows that she is not human and is suspicious. Lena reveals herself to him as a vampire and tells him about her feelings and that she needs help. Shortly thereafter, however, both are arrested by a special police unit.
Louise breaks into jail, kills many of the police officers present and kidnaps Tom. She tells Lena where to find her. Lena, who is also able to free herself shortly afterwards, drives to the specified location. It's a ruined tower. Louise demands that Lena tell her that she loves her. Otherwise she would kill Tom. Lena tells her, but Louise recognizes the lie and shoots Tom several times.
Lena and Louise fight each other. After a brutal fight, Lena can throw Louise into the daylight, where she also dies. Now it's just her and Tom in the tower. Lena kisses Tom, but at the same moment another special unit storms this very tower. When they reach the place where Lena and Tom recently stayed, both are no longer there. Lummer, a friend of Tom, quietly wishes them good luck.
== Trivia ==
* In the book for the film it is said that a person must have a special talent that is genetically inherited in order to become a vampire. Because of this, few people can be turned into vampires. In addition, the book also implies that the vampires there are not immortal, but just very long-lived. Neither is mentioned in the film, however, as the vampires are more like classic vampires.
