Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Vėlyvis became Lithuania's most commercially successful director by importing Hollywood genre tropes into post-Soviet settings, creating a uniquely Baltic brand of pulp cinema.
The film's working title was simply 'Zero' — the '2' was added after producers realized audiences thought it was a sequel and showed up anyway.
