Strong rule: style --- Cinematic, gritty Soviet realism, dark comedy, ... ---. Extreme close-up of the Soviet man's face. He is squinting with a menacing, sarcastic smirk. In the foreground, out of focus, large sharp icicles hanging from a roof. Cold blue color grading, harsh shadows on his rugged face.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Советский мужик: A rugged 50-year-old Soviet man, heavy stubble, piercing angry eyes, thick eyebrows. He is wearing an unbuttoned dirty padded jacket (telogreika) over a thin white tank top, and a classic ushanka hat with ear flaps tied up. Standing in deep snow, exhaling thick vapor.
