"The film is conveniently set in 2024, when Washington and Kyiv were allies. Its director, Liubomyr Levytskyi, said he was inspired by a real life story, when a couple trying to rescue relatives came under Russian attack."
"Levytskyi said he took artistic licence with the plot, adding a 12-year-old girl kidnapped by Russians. Scenes take place in the White House situation room, in occupied eastern Ukraine and a farmhouse in a deadly grey zone."
"Drones in general, well, they're something new. And I thought, right, this story needs to be made into a film. The ensuing two-and-half hour film was shot last year in the Kyiv region."
