Like In Venice (2021)
On his 30th birthday, the event manager Petr Maslov, tired of everything, receives an impossible order from the oligarch Anton Orekhov: to arrange the birthday for his wife, which… is today. A masquerade, parades, gondolas — so that everything would be “like in Venice”, but only on the Gorki estate near Moscow. The mad requests of the customer and his wife, hysterics, a terrible taste and a million of instructions in a second literally drive Petr and his team mad.

Gripping story with well-crafted characters
It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
