It's actually a comedy. The plot is a rehash of the story that absolutely everyone remembers from Ryazanov’s “Office Romance.” A saga about a woman in whose life there is only work, work and... more work. Starring Natalya Vdovina (from Zvyagintsev’s “Return”) and Vladimir Vdovichenkov.
Actually, Mymra is a businesswoman who rejected absolutely everything for the sake of her career. Lonely and strong-willed. She's 35, but she has nothing but work and ironclad principles about it. In accordance with the recommendations of doctors, she decides to give birth to a child, probably intending to raise the heir to the construction empire. The search for a candidate for insemination ends with a chance meeting with former classmate Sergei Krylov (Vdovichenkov), for whom Mymra had long ago felt... I think this is called falling in love? No, the lady is not sure. Now she only needs physiological help from her former love. For this reason, the lady even takes a vacation and... gets a job as a housekeeper for Krylov. The avalanche of long-forgotten love, of course, cannot be avoided. Will poor Mymra be able to catch up and turn into a queen? But guess what. Preferably one time.
Filming will continue until the end of March. Then the footage will be edited and voiced. The film will be ready by June, but when the premiere will take place is still unclear. The comedy promises to be interesting for any audience. The epithets that PR people pepper it with: unexpected, eccentric, ironic... If the series lives up to at least half of the hopes placed on it... then we'll see.
