Kiberderevnya

I've been following the Birchpunk project for several years and found their production amazingly good. They started as an independent low-budget project without any funding whatsoever and have made several videos which they uploaded on Youtube for free, and immediately received the highest ratings. Top quality video, witty and funny script, good acting - just what a good movie should be about.

Then the war in Ukraine happened and they fell silent for a couple of years. There were rumours that they have signed a contract with Kinopoisk (Russian movie portal) for production of a full series. I initially had big doubts of the outcome, but when I saw the result, I was almost applauding. They have managed to create a subtle, intelligent and funny satire to the current events, so subtle that you really need to know the context to get it. But the ones who know it are rewarded twice.
