simple but entertaining

As the summary already said, this movie has a typical post-soviet storyline. So, if you expect an original plot you will be disappointed eventually. The plot as well as character development is pretty simple. Many scenes are set way to obvious, so that you're able to guess what's going to happen next. This, of course, makes the movie less exciting than it could be.

However, there are things I really liked about this movie. I think that the actor who played the granddad was great. You really believe him, you feel what he feels and you will be surprised how much strength this old man can bring up and how determine he is seeking for justice. That's all this movie delivers. It's simple and entertaining, definitely worth watching, there's just nothing special about it...

Trivia
Anna Sinyakina revealed she was replaced by a body double in the rape scene. "At the time of filming, I was a minor and refused to undress categorically. The naked body parts in the film are not mine. I originally asked for a stunt double. And even here the point is not that I wasn't allowed to be naked. Having received parental consent, I was able to undress, but I was very shy. We thought a lot about how to replace me with a stunt double. I was lying on the bed and suddenly I grabbed the blanket and threw it over me so I couldn't be seen. The solution has been found. Another girl was hiding under a blanket," Sinyakina said.
