Synopsis
Shall We Wake Up Together? (2012) is a Russian drama you can watch online on iFILM. Three women, three lives, one shared past — they came of age in the wild nineties, when love suddenly went out of fashion.
Lena is a con artist trying to spring her father from prison, where he landed because of her. Yulia, a doctor, watches a marriage that looks fine from the outside split at the seams. Vika, a high-flying manager, is pulled apart by her career, her child and a married lover. Sex, sure. Cynicism, plenty. Love, somehow, never quite fits. Yulia Galkina, Tatyana Lyannik and Maria Bortnik head the cast.
The series wins less on plot twists than on recognition: behind each heroine stands a familiar type of woman raised in an era that treated feelings as weakness. Anyone who remembers the nineties will find something that hits home. Stream Shall We Wake Up Together? (2012) online on iFILM.
