Musician Roma Beast, who played one of the main roles (Mike Naumenko) in Serebrennikov's movie "Summer", answered Boris Grebenshchikov (BG), who criticized the tape, and accused journalists of rendering BG "a disservice".

"Boris Grebenshchikov said stupidity, but you repeat it, thereby doing a disservice to Boris Borisovich. Because he did not watch the film, but read only the first script, which then changed a million times. What are the hipsters who make love at someone else's expense? Man just a little wrong, and you take and multiply annoying mistake. It is clear that Grebenshchikov has the right to his opinion and he so rudely expressed him, not looking at the film. This is from the series: I do not look, but I condemn. Here's what really happened. And Boris Borisovich also has his own story. As we know from books and stories, he says that it was he who discovered Tsoi. Let's see the film and you will see a different point of view, "he said at a press conference in Yeltsin Center.

Recall, Boris Grebenshchikov called the script of the film Cyril Serebrennikov "a lie from beginning to end".

Filming began in July 2017. The director finished editing the tape, being under house arrest. Kirill Serebrennikov is accused of embezzlement of budget funds allocated for the theatrical project "Platforma". In April, the court granted the petition of the Ministry of Culture to extend Serebrennikov's house arrest - because of this the director was not present in Cannes at the premiere of "Leta".
