The film also features the international movie star - UK actor, Alan Ford, who rose to fame in Guy Ritchie’s films “Snatch†and “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrelsâ€Â
Ford says he decided to join the cast immediately after reading the script.
“I realized this is a political satire and I really like such stories,†the UK star explains.
