The staff of a successful Moscow radio station are sent into the Volga region to assist in the promotion of a candidate for the local governor elections. They are assisted by the local theatre director, a fake priest, and their boss' connections.

Film.ru reviewer Valery Kichin called Oleg Fomin's film a really funny and really relevant comedy.[3]
As noted by political consultant Igor Mintusov, it was filmed very talentedly and very well, there are many moments well captured in form. Although the reality is quite adequately shown there, there are few strategic ideas to be seen there.[4]
According to Boris Nadezhdin, an unregistered candidate for the 2024 Russian presidential election, he had told some of the amusing political stories that would later become the basis for the plot of play and film to the Kvartet I himself.[5]
