With Viktor, our ambition was to produce an international English-spoken film that offered a glimpse of reality of today’s Russia not limited to a beautiful scenery and some cliché characters. The film combines a top-level casting including Gerard Depardieu and Elizabeth Hurley with some skillful directing of  Philippe Martinez, a notorious film noir expert. Moscow, Chechnia, the father-son relationship, the man chase – “Viktor” has all the elements of a classic action film.
