Its been 2001 when I was playing Max Payne. The atmosphere of New York City, dead streets, winter storm, stamped in the memory most likely forever. Sprinkling on top movies like Seven, Chinatown, L.A. Confidential finalized a fanatic love to everything industrial and Noir.

15 Years later, it happened that I could scout and experience all of the locations by myself. It was more then obvious, all unfilmed alleys, and dark corners of the city, has to be shown without any additional retouch.  A bit longer then immediately, a concept of a story appeared.
