The film was selected to compete for the Palme d'Or at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival.[7] It shares the Grand Prix with Asghar Farhadi's A Hero.[8][9] It was selected as the Finnish submission for the Best International Feature Film at the 94th Academy Awards[10] and was one of the 15 "shortlisted" films in the category[11][12] but was not nominated for the Oscar.

During the Cannes Film Festival, Sony Pictures Classics bought the distribution rights to the film for North America as well as Latin America, Eastern Europe (excluding co-production country Russia, where the film was distributed by the domestic branch of sister company Sony Pictures Releasing in the country), Southeast Asia and the Middle East, marking the company's second acquisition of a Finnish film following Aki Kaurismäki's The Man Without a Past in 2002.[13]

Plot

Traveling by train from Moscow to Murmansk to study the Kanozero Petroglyphs, a Finnish student finds herself in a compartment with a gruff Russian miner.[14]
