Short description
In the late 1980s, when “perestroika” was taking place in the USSR and the era of the Soviet Union was about to collapse, life became unstable and very different. The 1980s brought not only freedom, but also waves of crime on the city streets. While some young people began to ‘grow up’ on the streets, others found it difficult to find their place in this unpredictable reality. Andrey, lives with his mother and five-year-old sister. He studies at a music school and often encounters street teenagers who harass him. To protect himself, Andrey makes friends with one of these teenagers, Marat, who introduces him to gang life. Youth groups fight for every piece of territory; they defend their right to live the life, even breaking laws and promises. The only thing that matters to them is the vows they make to their gang members-brothers, with whom they confront the violence and fears of the adult world.

What's left behind the scenes
- Despite the similarity in title, the series is not an adaptation of the book 'Slovo Patsana: Criminal Tatarstan 1970s–2010s'. However, its author, Robert Garayev, participated in the project as a consultant and was subsequently included in the credits as one of the screenwriters.
- The series was filmed in Yaroslavl.
- A hockey rink was built specifically for the shoot. Yaroslavl officials asked for it to be donated to the city and not dismantled after filming, but the series production team did not comply with the local administration's request.
- After the release of the third episode, director Zhora Kryzhovnikov decided to reshoot some scenes in the seventh and eighth episodes to slightly alter the finale.
- In many outdoor scenes, plastic double-glazed windows are visible in the windows of residential buildings. In Russia, these appeared only in the 1990s and became commonplace in the 2000s.
- At the 6-minute mark of Season 1, Episode 4, during a chase, a police UAZ collides with a passenger car. A pedestrian crossing marked with yellow-and-white stripes is visible in this shot. Such markings only appeared in the 2010s.
