In Ruble Without a Ruble

The happiness and well-being of the wealthy beauty Anna collapses when her businessman husband, without explanation, leaves her and files for divorce. Shortly before the divorce, Anna began to actively engage in her own charity project. At first, the husband was supposed to help with financing, but now he has disappeared and does not get in touch. Anna hopes that this is not a break, but a temporary crisis, and also temporarily settles the first participants in her mansion. This is how Bentley and Prada settle in the region: a simple village girl, an instadiva, a former convict and a young vegan eco-feminist. Anna and her wards girls will have to jointly look for ways not only to survive, but also to find funding for their project. After all, they strive not only to improve their lives, but also to provide such an opportunity to other "problem" women.

Directed by Aysurat Shamanova, In Ruble Without a Ruble leans on a strong ensemble — Ekaterina Guseva, Svetlana Permyakova, Aysurat Shamanova — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2023.
