Rails custom validation messages

I'm trying to set form validation with cyrillic alphabet but I get 

We're sorry, but something went wrong.

Here is the code that I use 

  validates_presence_of :user, :message => "кирилица"

What is wrong here ?

You forgot to tell ruby that your source file is in utf-8

Ruby 1.9 assumes your source files are US-ASCII encoded unless you provide an 

# encoding: utf-8

comment at the beginning of your source file

PS : I would suggest you to use i18n to store your validation messages. You can find info about the mechanism here, it will allow you to either change default messages or specific messages for a model.
