Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Konstantinov shot both episodes in a single actual house over nine days, refusing to let actors leave set between scenes to maintain claustrophobic tension.
The 88-minute runtime per episode mirrors a stage play structure — Konstantinov adapted his own theatrical production, and the living room essentially functions as a proscenium where family roles are performed until they crack.
