“I want to bring back the great tradition of action films of the 1980s and 1990s - those cult films that we all love so much, where the heroes were unusual, the stunts were impressive and truer to life itself,” says the film’s director.
Oleksandr Tkachenko, commenting on the filming of the film in Ukraine, expressed the hope that this work will become the first foreign project to receive rebates, that is, the state will reimburse 25% of the cost of filming in Ukraine.
The Verkhovna Rada adopted a law providing for such compensation in September last year.
