Catch the Dog If You Can

Catch the Dog If You Can (2024) is a Russian New Year family comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Anna Kurbatova, it centers on Boris, a struggling writer moonlighting as a shop clerk for Alina — his old flame, whose business now hinges on a deal with her smooth rival Amiantov.

When the family is invited to Amiantov's holiday carnival, a quiet contest breaks out between the two men over the same woman, with ten-year-old Lusha rooting for her dad. The real engine of the plot, though, isn't the love triangle. A stolen ring once worn by Queen Nefertiti is tucked inside a half-eaten hot dog that a stray named Caruso shared with the family's dog Christie. While the owners are away, thieves come hunting for Christie, and the only one standing in their way is Caruso, the scruffy stray who's fallen for her.

Rated 12+ and built for a cozy winter night, it mixes a holiday romance with a chase, a pharaoh's ring and two dogs at the heart of the chaos. Stream Catch the Dog If You Can online on iFILM.
