- 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
Get an android they said. It will be fun they said. Sci-Fi + Soft-Porn = Sci-Porn?
Two words: huh & ytho (yes, you have the right image in your head)
85 mins was waaaay too long for this screenplay. I will say the visuals (although 75% repetitive and irrelevant) and the sound/score were the best features of this film. Lastly, it was the awesome directing (his first major film) by novice director Lazar Bodroza, and outstanding cinematography by Kosta Glusica, that offered some redemption for the terrible writing/screenplay by (apparently) seasoned writer Dimitrije Vojnov .
The writing/screenplay had many issues and flawed this film drastically. This was pretty much a Sci-Fi + Soft-Porn = Sci-Porn? Perhaps a good new genre, but not from this film. Then, a spaceship so huge with large empty spaces and basically a computer center in the middle? Unconvincing. Add to the misery completely irrelevant graphic/CGI shots, cheesy command computer dialogue, and consistent high-school puppy love drama. I understand it was a low budget international film, and even moreso for that reason it should have been a short film 20-30 mins long, instead of the slowly paced dragged out long and repetitive sex and boring irrelevant dialogue scenes that made it an unbearable 85 mins. I feel the 'message(s)' this film was trying to tell would have been more effective and obvious as a short, and probably should have been re-made/cut/edited-down as such, seeing this film is based on Zoran Neskovic's 1980's short story.
The acting was between decent and bland, both by Sebastian Cavazza and porn star (yes, you read that right) Stoya.
Would I recommend it? Only if played on a big screen muted with your favorite playlist during a party - only for the visuals. Would I see it again? See previous answer.
A disappointing and underwhelming 4/10 from me
