Back in 2015, the director and producer of the film conceived several parts based on the story “about the ruin of Ryazan by Batu”. Ascent is a prequel to the main events of the Mongol-Tatars invasion.

“The current situation is a direct parallel with the history that we want to recreate. We are like the squad of Evpatiy Kolovrat: we fight, we take risks, we perform a certain feat. We have gathered a small group of filmmakers who are planning to make quality films, and with this small squad we are opposing a huge horde. "

Interesting Facts
Few facts about the project:
- The budget for the production of the first part is 93 million rubles.
- The Cinema Foundation refused the studio financial support for the film adaptation, but allocated subsidies for the filming of the same main character from the giant of the Russian film industry - Central Partnership.
Without a trailer and actors, the film "Kolovrat: Ascent" will not receive a release date, most likely: the plot around the project is worse than any cinematic. First, the director says that he will not abandon his idea, despite the competition from the media giant, and after a couple of years in an interview he says: “Well, so what, but I made the film“ Skif ”...”. So you can close this topic, as they say: "There will be no keen, the electricity is over."
