Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis movie is inspired by a true story, in which a French citizen in Siberia, Yoann Barbereau, director of the local branch of the Alliance française, was accused of pedophilia, based on very flimsy evidence. However, the writer/director did not acquire the rights of Barbereau's book and decided to write an action thriller instead of the very Kafkaesque original story. This was heavily criticized, both by Barbereau and by several critics during its release, as they felt the characters are very cliche and some story beats quite unbelievable.
- Crazy creditsThe title appears on screen in cyrillic script.
- ConnectionsReferences The Young Girls of Rochefort (1967)
- Soundtracks39th Parallel North (for Electronics)

Featured review
This is kind of exactly what I have against French movies. The story is good, the actors are good, the images are good, but the way it is filmed is way too long. It's as if there are 2 different kinds of movies, the comedies and the artsy ones. This one tries to be artsy, with pan shots, and repeating itself so that we understand how much the poor guy waited. I love movies, and I love movies that are a piece of art, because it's gorgeous, and yet it keeps you interested throughout, without needong to take a nap. But this one fails at it. It felt very long, which transpired with me looking at my watch around the 1 hour mark to see how long I was supposed to stay there still. I think the real story of Yoann Barbereau would have been better, rather than VERY loosely basing the movie on it. So much questions remain in the end. Too bad...
