Synopsis
Kariera Kukolki (The Doll's Career, 2025) is a Russian period comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM. Director Evgeny Yulikov sets the story in 1910s St. Petersburg, where a wealthy eccentric and arts patron makes a bet with his circle: take a shy young poet and turn him into a genuine celebrity. Aleksandr Samoylenko and Alexei Onezhen lead the cast.
It turns out faster than expected that a person is not raw material. The poet has his own pride and, as things develop, his own agenda. The patron never accounted for the difference between funding an object and funding a human being. Rated 18+, the film is direct about the vanity, dependency and calculation that sit underneath all that talk about art. Stream Kariera Kukolki (2025) online on iFILM.
