The most difficult, dangerous and mysterious crimes, which ordinary people are unable to solve, are instructed to Captain Rykov. His sharp mind, years of experience, cynicism and lightning speed reaction not only contribute to solving crimes, but also become the basis for a controversial reputation. It is so controversial that some of his friends are inclined to believe that Captain Rykov, how shall I put it, is not a man at all ... But who is he?

Alexander Budyonniy worked as a director of a detective series «Officer Kryuk» which was shot at FILM.UA in 2006. Over the past few years, Alexander has directed films «Pilgrim’s Shelter» and a crime drama «Demons».

With the operator, Alexander Sedov, company FILM.UA worked over the project «Special Dispatch», where Sasha was Alexey Lamakh’s right-hand man. As director of photography he worked over melodrama «Love on two poles», «Miracle», and a short film «Wonders in the cap».

Vyacheslav Razbegaev plays the main role, Captain Rykov. Thanks to his charisma and the aura of mystery of this actor, it seems that the author created his character specifically for Slava. Razbegaev performed many roles in films and theater - from the famous film «The Deerslayer» to Ramon Menkander, murderer, in the movie «Trotsky», from the melodrama «A walk through Paris» to the FSB major in a crime series «Object 11». In the movie «Werewolf Hunt», FILM.UA, Vyacheslav played a German Kurt Jost. Vyacheslav Razbegaev is a master of  various incarnations.

Shooting will continue until the end of May. Then the period of editing and post-production will start. Despite the fact that the project will be filmed in the format of the show, FILM.UA intends to make this format not a cheap detective, but a qualitative series with spectacular special effects and beautiful filming.
