Up and coming film director Ilya Naishuller, who's also the frontman for Moscow punk band Biting Elbows, signed to US talent agency WME in July 2013 following the success of his band's music video Bad Motherf*cker.

Naishuller's direction and production of the video earned the group almost 23 million YouTube and Vimeo hits, with his style being likened to Quentin Tarantino. Following the success of the video he's landed his first feature film directing project on Timur Bekmambetov's sci-fi flick Hardcore.
