This romantic comedy became one of the most popular films in the former Soviet Union and a staple of TV broadcasts on New Year’s Eve. It’s based on the premise that Brezhnev era apartment complexes looked so much alike that one could not distinguish one city from another. On New Year’s Eve, Muscovite Yevgeny Lukashin (Andrei Myagkov) finally dares to make a marriage proposal to Galya (Olga Naumenko). They plan to celebrate the New Year together quietly, but Lukashin’s friends convince him that first he should attend their annual meeting at a bathhouse. The meeting quickly turns into an improvisational bachelor party for Yevgeny and then things start to go hilariously wrong… Celebrate the Orthodox New Year with us under the Julian Calender (January 14th) and start your 2012 off right! |
