What's left behind the scenes

The rights to adapt the story were officially bought from Dmitry Davydov, the creator of the psychological game "Mafia," who currently resides in the United States. Davydov invented "Mafia" in 1986 while still a student at the psychology faculty of Moscow State University.
Before filming began, the film's director, Sarik Andreasyan, organized a series of "demonstration games" of classic "Mafia" with the performers of all the key roles in the film. This was a mandatory condition for an actor's approval for a role.
One of the film's scenes was shot at the ZIL plant, and this was the last time the location was used for filmmaking.
During the expedition to Tenerife Island, a local production company that had previously worked on the film "Fast & Furious 6" (2013) collaborated with the Russian crew.
For the role of the outstanding dancer Maria, actress Natalia Rudova took ballet lessons from ballet teacher and choreographer Yulia Chicheva, a ballerina from the Bolshoi Theatre.
During filming in the open ocean, the second unit director Alexei Smolyar broke a rib while assisting the underwater cameraman.
To maximize the intrigue of the Mafia game, several versions of the ending were filmed during production, so that even the actors didn't know who was Mafia and who was a civilian until the film's premiere. The final edit of the film was kept strictly confidential until its release.
To play the role of one of the participants in "The Mafia" – a seriously ill engineer named Ilya – actor Andrei Chadov specifically lost 8 kg, with a nutritionist developing a diet plan for him. He also practiced boxing and swimming.
