It was produced by Kirlian Pictures & Scanner Rhodes with the assistance of Northern Film & Media.
The film stars Luke Goss, Caroline Tillette, Stephen Marcus, Danny Midwinter and Elliot Greene.
The film is told using flashbacks in which Viktor explains to a disgraced filmmaker how he became a professional assassin.
[1] He starts with his childhood; raised in a slum area in an outlying district of Bucharest, Romania.
Viktor's first assignment is to collect money owed to the mafia, but the man belittles the young lad and pays with his life.
In addition to preparation, eavesdropping, infiltration, and elimination, Sergei teaches him how to destroy a strong man by killing the people he cares for: "Sometimes, a simple bullet is not enough."
Returning home to Bucharest, Viktor finds out that the two bullies who threatened him as a kid were now local mafia men.
He pays a visit to Alexei, ordering him to bury the video evidence of him being alive, and warns him he will be next if news gets out.
Bethesda tells the story of two girls taken from their father and sold into service; one sister is weaker, and dies, but the other is stronger, and survives.
Unsettled, Viktor sits down at Bethesda's invitation, then she shoots him with the gun the interviewer had dropped, and explains why.
Interview with a Hitman was shot in 18[3] days in August 2011 on location in and around Newcastle upon Tyne, England and Bucharest, Romania.
