Trivia
This movie is inspired by a true story, in which a French citizen in Siberia, Yoann Barbereau, director of the local branch of the Alliance française, was accused of pedophilia, based on very flimsy evidence. However, the writer/director did not acquire the rights of Barbereau's book and decided to write an action thriller instead of the very Kafkaesque original story. This was heavily criticized, both by Barbereau and by several critics during its release, as they felt the characters are very cliche and some story beats quite unbelievable.

Crazy credits
The title appears on screen in cyrillic script.

Extremely accurate depiction of how 'things are done' in Russia

This is the kind of movie that everyone living in civilised and comfortable prosperous calm world must see. Everyone just living his own life, enjoying moments with friends and family. But if you live in Russia, it is like if Alice on the other side of the mirror. As soon as in nowadays Russia, you will easily learn that the rule of law doesn't exist. That anyone with even smallest grasp of power uses it to his own benefit. That human life is worthless - own citizens, and foreigners - even less. That there are no logical explanation nor motives for prosecuting or jailing an innocent man. Everything runs on an almost medieval barbaric logic. All that is Russia nowadays.
