Maldives Will Wait

Maldives Will Wait (2023) — watch online on iFILM — is a Russian romantic comedy directed by Anariy Mamedov, starring Polina Maksimova and Roman Mayakin.

Eva and Denis have been together long enough to build up a solid stockpile of unresolved grievances. A quiet conversation to sort things out was the plan — what they get instead is a chain of increasingly chaotic situations. Eva, out of patience, decides the most direct route back to his attention is to take Denis hostage. Roman Kurtsyn, Yana Koshkina, and Maksim Lagashkin keep the surrounding chaos well-fed.

A relaxed, undemanding comedy that works on the logic that sometimes a crisis fixes what a conversation keeps putting off. Stream Maldives Will Wait (2023) online on iFILM.
