Synopsis
Samogonshchitsy (The Moonshiner Girls, 2021) is a Russian comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Anya Karpukhina, a technologist at a small-town vodka distillery, gets fed up with the factory's sloppy output and brews a batch the old-fashioned way — and lands a million-ruble fine plus a pink slip for her trouble.
To clear the debt, Anya and two friends set out to move two thousand bottles of their own, far better, homemade vodka. The man behind all her grief is Igor Proskudin, the distillery's young, arrogant Moscow boss. When the wonder-drink starts moving under the counter all over town, he goes hunting for the bootleggers — and falls for Anya, who, thanks to him, has already been tracked down and arrested. Loyal girlfriends, hard-drinking cops, crooked officials and even an Italian count get tangled into the scheme. A warm provincial caper with a light streak of the absurd, for anyone who likes a romance that grows out of a real mess. Stream Samogonshchitsy online on iFILM.
