Kokoko

Kokoko (Кококо) is a 2012 Russian drama film directed by Dunya Smirnova.

Plot
Lisa (Anna Mikhalkova), a dedicated researcher employed at the Kunstkamera, embarks on a journey to St.Petersburg. While on her way, she happens to come across Vika (Yana Troyanova), a restaurant hostess from Yekaterinburg, which turns out to be a fortunate encounter. Coincidentally, Vika is also making her way to St.Petersburg, albeit with a distinct objective - to immerse herself in the vibrant atmosphere and revel in the city's vibrant offerings purely for pleasure and leisure.

While on the train, unfortunate circumstances befall them as their bags, containing all their valuable documents and money, are snatched away by miscreants. Left with no means to navigate through this challenging situation, Lisa extends her kindness and offers Vika a temporary refuge at her humble abode.

Vika's relentless dedication to her work at the museum brings about a whirlwind of non-stop celebrations, transforming the once mundane life of the museum worker into an ongoing sequence of lively festivities. However, as their friendship begins to blossom, unforeseen tensions arise, causing their relationship to transition from camaraderie to a full-blown conflict.

Within the realms of these two contrasting worlds, two heroines coexist: Lisa, an intellectual who is torn between her indecisiveness and her heightened sensitivity, unable to break free from her past relationship with her ex-husband, and Vika, a vibrant and accessible character who exudes confidence, yet possesses an endearing naivety and innate kindness in certain aspects of her life.

Due to a web of complicated emotions, circumstances, and actions, Lisa finds herself on the verge of committing a crime, while Victoria ultimately pays the price by serving a prison sentence.
