Shurale

Shurale (2026) is a Russian fantasy thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Alina Nasibullina, who also leads the cast.

Aysha has a wedding to plan — until her brother Timur vanishes without explanation. She drives back to the village she left years ago and finds only closed doors and uneasy silence. The locals speak of Shurale, a malevolent forest spirit from Tatar folklore said to lure people deep into the woods and never let them out. Maxim Matveyev and Ruzil Minekayev round out the main cast of this 90-minute film.

Russian genre cinema rarely leans this far into national mythology. Shurale does, and the result feels genuinely unlike anything else in the current domestic slate. Watch Shurale online on iFILM.
