We make a beautiful film for a wide audience. We are sure that our main character Sasha will be close to young girls and, most likely, they will fall head over heels in love with the hero Pasha, and older viewers will appreciate a good story and high-quality music. ”

Yulia is incredibly beautiful, and she is a real big dramatic actress. Her heroine is a tragic character in our history, Yulia’s acting will make everyone burst out crying, ”the director said.
