Two Russian cops, one frozen corpse, and the most incompetent crime scene in cinema history.
The intention is to be a good police officer, but in Russia it is very cold. In the distant regions of Russia, two police officers go on a job. The task they face is rather simple, but the local climate creates a serious obstacle for its fulfilment.
Practical Effects
Genuine Russian winter misery — no soundstage nonsense here.
Acting
Kulichkov's exhausted everyman cop deserves a feature.
Director
Danil Ivanov
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of a wave of post-Soviet deadpan comedies where systemic failure becomes punchline — think Zvyagintsev meets Kaurismäki.
Shot in actual -25°C conditions; the shivering you see is documentary, not performance.
