Kirill Khrestinin

Kirill Khrestinin is a Russian-American author and filmmaker.

He writes about the things most people avoid — the psyche of human beings, the interactions that destroy us, love, violence, crime, and betrayal.

His work explores human nature through dark humor and unflinching drama. The carelessness of his characters leads them straight to hell. Though there's always a glimpse of redemption.
