    • Trivia
      Asked about his explicit sex scene with Kristina Asmus, Ivan Yankovskiy said: "Yeah, we shot the footage ourselves. We drank wine, we clinked glasses, and started shooting. And it's always very funny. Because the director says to you, 'Come on!' and goes out the door to drink tea. And here you are, and she's here, and you have to shoot it all. And it's like she has a husband, out there in life, and he'll see everything. It's kind of creepy, really. But I understood: either you have to believe in it, or it makes no sense to do it."

    Intense, depressing and bleak, but amazing
    What an amazing movie. Intense, bleak and very sad. Definitely not a movie for everyone. Leaves you thinking about a lot of things

    9/10.
