Online premiere


In 2024, it was announced that a highly anticipated movie would premiere online on November 16, 2024. The premiere, scheduled for 21:00 Moldova time, aimed to break three world records. The film's creators intended to gather over 355,000 viewers simultaneously in front of their screens to surpass the record for "The largest online premiere," set by the Indian film Dil Bechara in 2020.
Additionally, the film planned to include the name of every viewer in the end credits, targeting two other records: "The most names in end credits," previously set by the Japanese film Sensou to seishun in 1991, and "The longest end credits," a record held jointly by Once Upon a Time in the West and Superman.
By November 12, over 30,000 tickets had been sold across 82 countries, and the names of ticket purchasers were included in the end credits. The film successfully set two world records:

The most names in end credits with 21,559 names.
The longest end credits, lasting 1.5 hours.
