Biography and image of John Whita
Character biography resembles a template fighter. Like most Kinokartin heroes of this genre, killer - volitional and purposeful person. He is an unshakable hero, lost everything and not striving for a better life.The creators seemed a curious idea to tell about a man whose life went under the slope after the death of his wife. The evil strength ruins everything surrounds: The criminals crack the castle in the house, kill the dog, a gift of spouses, and hijaculate the car. The hero is forced to stand on the path of war, defending himself, and the world of crime delays him: Over time, John Piq becomes a legend killer with a huge track record.

On the one hand, Fabul seems primitive, even by the standards of militants: a desperate hero, buried a loved one and seeking consolation in revenge. On the other hand, the director deliberately sought to simplify everything and all that the sense of the film was understood by the viewer at the visual level, without dialogues. John's problem is that the emptiness in his soul is not even filled with revenge: he kills the enemies is emotionally, just because you need to fill life something. Retribution distracts it, but does not saturate. He returns to himself, his fierce nature and harmful habits that, after the death of the only close person, no one is able to restrain.
