Production
The fictional Soviet nomenklatura poet Georgy Platonovich Protasov is a composite character, but the film includes quotes from real works by Soviet poets: an excerpt from Nikolai Tikhonov's poem "Sami" and songs based on the poems of Yevgeny Dolmatovsky "The Danube Wreath" and "Behind the Factory Outpost".[6]
