Cast

Production

The filming process took place in a severe frost in the winter of 2017-2018 in one of the deserted settlements of the Mosalsky District. The scenery for the film was created a year before the start of official filming, but due to inappropriate weather conditions, the work of the film crew had to be postponed for nine months.
