About the film

A Very Romantic Comedy

What it’s about

Artem, Igor and Oli live in New York, where they work and spend their free time partying, visiting saunas and strip clubs, and having casual flings. Sex has become a short-distance race for them, with seduced women treated as trophies and their conquests the main topic at every stag party. One evening at a club, a strange-looking man raises a glass and makes a toast. Soon after, all three discover an unpleasant change: they can no longer have sex. Desperate, they try ginseng root, Viagra, Thai massage, and sexologist consultations, but nothing helps. Eventually they find the man from the party and learn that he used mystical powers to 'encode' them against promiscuous relationships. The only cure is love—sex will be possible only with a beloved woman. Now they must find her.

What hooks you

Directed by Maryus Vaysberg, the film stars Vera Brezhneva, Aleksey Chadov, and Svetlana Khodchenkova. It was nominated for a Georges Award as Best Russian Comedy in 2010.
