Mykola Yeriomin: [actors portraying multiple roles] Despite appearing seemingly in one role, Yaroslav Kozak is credited for portraying Richard Syutkin and The Sphinx at Giza, alluding to a double nature of a character.
Mykola Yeriomin: [surrealism] Despite stating that the short is inspired by Henrik Ibsen's "Peer Gynt", events from the play are barely alluded to with a surreal urban tale with barely any plot to it.
Mykola Yeriomin: [multilingualism] Russian and Ukrainian dialogue with burnt-in English subtitles, credits and intertitles plus Norwegian and German titles of music pieces in the end credits. Also seen are Danish and Japanese (one word each).
