How the F(pip)ck Happened to Maxim
In order to get the opportunity to make his first film, the aspiring director Maxim is forced to agree with the producer's comments and make censored changes to his script. Yes, it will be a completely different movie, but it will be. Returning home, Maxim discovers an extremely unusual phenomenon: instead of a mat in speech, he hears a piercing "piiip", and instead of naked body parts — black "patches" and a fuzzy image. And even alcohol has lost its taste and degree. It seems that Maxim has become the main source of censorship for himself.
