- TriviaAt 4:18 the Social Engineer refers to Asimov's laws which follow: First Law: A robot may not injure a human being, or through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Second Law: A robot must obey orders given to it except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as that protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws. The laws were published in science fiction writer Isaac Asimov's 1950 collection "I, Robot".
- GoofsMIlutin says in the initial interview "By the time they reached the targets, the country that sent them ceased to exist. Or, the ideologies they carried stopped being valid." A flight to Mars now takes about 2-3 years one way by current technology and the duration is likely to be drastically reduced future inventions. There is no written history mentioning any country that might have ceased to exist or a ideology rendered meaningless in such a short span. This could be a valid observation only for interstellar travel to other stars that would take many years or even centuries with current technology, or for intergalactic travels.
- Quotes
Social Engineer: What was your greatest doubt when you traveled to Mars?
Milutin: That the mission would lose its purpose by the time I reached my destination. It already happened before, to others. By the time they reached the targets, the country that sent them ceased to exist. Or, the ideologies they carried stopped being valid.

Featured review
Predictable plot with a wasted premise that is compensated for by amazing atmosphere for a low budget sci fi
A Serbian Film (no not THAT one) about a man on an isolated spaceship, his only companion a female Android. Right off the bat, I have to admit there are specifically two points this SF feature got right: lighting and sound design. These two things genuinely enhanced the atmosphere of the movie and made you engaged in the universe it created. So many big budget SF movies Hollywood pukes out these days just fail to realize the importance of these two attributes in the genre.
The premise, coming from a Socialist country, seems a bit .. of a stretch. Apparently , Capitalism is a plague in the future that has even infected whole galaxies and it is up to the ever righteous Ederlezi Corporation to send social engineers to these space colonies to restore normalcy the socialist way. That being said, I really wouldn't have had a problem of they actually fleshed out this premise even more. Instead, the film chooses to mainly concentrate on the chemistry between the cosmonaut and his robot sex partner. Which I guess wasn't bad on its own.
The robot is played by an actual pornographic actress, the beautiful and enchanting Stoya, so there is absolutely no body double or vfx used during the sex scenes. Also, she is naked most of the time even when the script didn't call for a sex scene. However, I admire that her particular athletic,not voluptuous, figure and the incredible lighting actually transcends any sleaziness and gives her a more sublime aura. It helps amplify the other worldliness instead of just being gratuitous nudity.
All in all, considering the low budget, I am very impressed. We genuinely need more atmospheric sci fi instead of another season of Star Trek Discovery.
