    • Trivia
      Although First Signal takes place in 2014, at the 1:09:55 mark President Colton predicts the future when she states to President Tupolov, "You should continue pushing into Donbas." Which is followed by a conversation about NATO and sanctions, thus predicting the future of actual events when Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022.

    Low buget
    Felt I was watching a pirate copy of a film. Obviously low budget. Felt it could have been an amazing film if more money was pumped into it, and better actors. Sound needs massive improvement.
