In mid -August, the Ministry of Culture explained his refusal to finance the future film by Alexander Mindadze "Dear Hans, Dear Peter", dedicated to the events of the Great Patriotic War. As the head of the Department of Cinematography of the Ministry Vyacheslav Telnov stated, "in this film there may be a little not the look that veterans are waiting for." Meanwhile, in the program of the department "everything is done under the same date - the 70th anniversary of the Victory."
At the end of August, it became known that Mindadze agreed to change the time of action in the film to obtain funding . Now his pre-war episodes will not take place in 1940, as expected in the original version of the script, but in the 1930s. It is known, however, that the Fabula of the picture is based on real events and episodes dated to 1940, took place precisely this year, and not earlier.
