History of creation

Principal photography took place in Kyiv in the summer and autumn of 2013. Some scenes were filmed in London.

Director Vladimir Krasnopolsky about the series: "The action of the film covers almost 60 years. The events unfold in the difficult post-war period. According to the plot, it turned out not to be a love triangle, but a real square. The main character returns from the war to his wife and children, and at this time there is his illegitimate child from a front-line girlfriend, and the woman herself appears in their house as a housewife. The atmosphere is heated to the limit. The actors have a place to turn around."
