Aleksandr's Price In the fall of 2011, Masó began writing a script about a male prostitute. In January 2012, production of the film started under the working title Simple Moves, and by March shooting began in the city of New York. According to IMDb, the film was shot in the period of approximately four weeks.

The film's first promotional teaser was released in April 2012, although the film didn't come out until fall 2013. The movie tells the story of an illegal Russian boy in Manhattan who, after losing his mother to suicide, is drawn into becoming a male prostitute. In a recent interview with a gay Russian magazine, the actor was quoted, saying: "To wrap this up, I also want to say that I find it highly insulting that people want to use religion to excuse their hate towards other people, rather they have a different sexual orientation, color, race or religion beliefs. There is just no excuse for that no matter what".

The film's final title in general release was changed from Simple Moves to Aleksandr's Price.

Shooting in various locations including Sant Feliu de Pallerols, Salt de Sallent de Rupit and Sant Privat d´en Bas.
