Igor Bishnyov also noted that overall, in Azerbaijan, he has created 5 successful films highlighting the country’s natural heritage. Further, he thanked the initiator of the project Leyla Aliyeva and shared his impressions of the making of the film.

Having been established only in 2005, Bishnyov also said that, Absheron National Park is quiet rich in fauna and flora.
