Trivia Several members of the real 2000/2004/2008 Olympic champion Hungarian Waterpolo team portray Hungarian and Soviet players in the movie: Bulcsú Székely, Péter Biros, Zoltán Szécsi, Gergely Kiss, István Gergely, Attila Vári. See more »
Goofs The movie depicts the massacre of 25 October 1956 on Kossuth Square very naturally, yet incorrectly. It's true that there were Soviet tanks on the square, and the Russian soldiers were friendly towards the demonstrators before the shooting began. But they never shot at the people. They realized that they are under fire from the rooftops and fired back. If you know where to look, you can still the spot where a tank shell has hit the top floor of a building in 1956. See more »
