About production
The director's post was taken by Sergei Shcherbin ("Lonely", "It was in the Kuban", "Passion for Chapay", "Realization", "Climbing Olympus"):

But for someone who really burns with his work, nothing is impossible. We took amazing underwater shots that will definitely impress viewers. "
