Short description

Terror strikes the underground train system in Moscow in the form of a flood from a collapsed tunnel. The film follows a diverse group of Moscow citizens who find themselves trapped in the city’s underground rail network, their train derailed and virtually crushed after an aging tunnel collapses. Amongst this band of survivors is softly spoken surgeon Andrey (Sergei Puskepalis), whose wife is having an affair with the conceited businessman Vlad (Anatoly Beliy). Fate brings these two men together on the same doomed train, but there is little time to resolve their differences, as the tunnel begins to quickly fill with water, forcing them to work together with the others and find a way back to the surface.

What's left behind the scenes

For the filming of the movie, a 117-meter long tunnel was constructed to full scale, and real subway cars were used.
In October 2011, filming took place in Samara. For almost two weeks, the Samara Metro played the role of the Moscow Metro. Filming was conducted at the Alabinskaya station under construction, the existing Moskovskaya station, and at the depot. The Samara Metro even provided the film crew with a special train specifically for filming the movie.
A mixed-breed dog named Pyotr, half Yorkshire Terrier and half Miniature Pinscher, played the role of Tyavka.
The film is based on the novel of the same name by Dmitry Safonov.
In the scene where Khodchenkova’s character learns from the news that her family is in the subway, it is clearly visible during the phone call that her iPhone is locked.
