Short description

When a border guard with a sixth sense for identifying smugglers encounters the first person she cannot prove is guilty, she is forced to confront terrifying revelations about herself and humankind.

What's left behind the scenes

The myth that trolls fear thunder arose because the ancient Scandinavians believed that the god of thunder Thor hunted giants and killed them with a hammer strike – lightning.
The director and screenwriter were influenced during work on the film, in particular, by the works of Colombian writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez (1927-2014), Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes (1928-2012), and Chilean poet and prose writer Roberto Bolaño (1953-2003).
Preparing for the role, Eva Melander gained weight, and makeup before the start of each shooting day took four hours. She always started getting makeup done at 2 a.m.
