A genuine satiric comedy, based on real conversations - both amusing and sad - overheard by a journalist in one of the most expensive Moscow restaurants. Hilarious and revealing, this is a film about women who choose between affection and money, film producers that don't really know what they're filming, and weary businessmen who sometimes say screw it, down a shot and leave their mother-in-laws to pay the bill. But most of all, it's about true love that favors noisy kitchen floor over gilded fine-dining halls.

Sascha lives in a village on the Kola Peninsular in northern Russia and dedicatedly manages what is left of an old collective farm. He gets on well with his farm workers who respect him and also tolerate his more or less clandestine love-affair with Anya, a secretary at the local government office. But then Sascha is suddenly faced with a dilemma: the district’s self-seeking administrators, none of whom could be termed squeamish, offer him a lucrative deal for the farm. In legal terms, Sascha doesn’t have much of a leg to stand on since his lease on the farm was only agreed with a handshake. The pressure mounts, and even more so when his employees convince him to stand firm. Against the backdrop of a landscape exposed to the elements, this unflinching man’s destiny takes its course.

Olya et Vadim, un couple russe, ont de grands projets : ils veulent se rendre en Allemagne pour acheter une dépanneuse d’occasion. Pendant des nuits entières, Vadim recherche sur Internet le véhicule le mieux adapté à son garage. Son seul revenu actuel provient des voitures Lada des naufragés qui empruntent la route dangereuse qui sort du village. Cette «route de la mort» symbolise l’endroit où vivent Olya et Vadim : un no-man's land russe qui n’a jamais eu de liens significatifs avec le reste du monde. La logique de ce monde devient folle lorsque Vadim entre accidentellement en contact avec une webCam girl de Géorgie. Vadim ne sait pas d’abord si elle habite la Géorgie, ex-état soviétique, ou l’État américain du même nom, bien que cela ne fasse pas beaucoup de différence pour lui, de toute façon. Il tombe follement amoureux de cette jeune femme…
