A sharp, mischievous look at Moscow’s golden center, this series tells short, interlocking comedy stories about life around Patriarch’s Ponds — the city’s most privileged neighborhood. Behind the façade of impeccable manners and perfect interiors, "decent" people get tangled in indecent situations: infidelity and marital crises, office romances and power games, secret lovers and bored spouses, friendships on the edge of betrayal, children who see too much and adults who feel too little.
All of them live door to door, frequent the same restaurants and boutiques, and crowd the same sunny terraces — a tight little world where paths constantly cross and collide. From episode to episode, chance meetings and tiny scandals spiral into intimate, awkward, juicy, sad and very funny stories, revealing that under the gloss of "Patriki" money can buy anything except maturity, sincerity, and the ability not to make a complete mess of your own life.
