The film is set during the G8 summit in St. Petersburg in July 2006. We see the effects for the local population. The sirens, military patrols, blocked streets, low-flying helicopters and armed escorts. City under siege. Even the largest cemetery in the city turned into a strategically sensitive location at the time.
