Trivia
Most signs in the movie are written in Czech, albeit nonsensically and mostly without the proper diacritics. The banner at the secret resistance meeting says "to unite correct"; the warning signs in the factory read "Danger: Steam"; and the scribbles on the newspaper mean "From our readers' letters". The labor decree that Pochenko draws up is only seen for a split second in one shot, but part of it says "further site updates are hereby postponed". See more »Goofs
Continuity: When Joy is in her room packing to leave to go to Europe, she is setting boxes down in one shot, but in the next, she's holding the trolls in her hands. See more »Quotes
