Buy Me (Russian: Купи меня, romanized: Kupi menya) is a 2018 Russian crime drama film directed by Vadim Perelman. It was nominated for the Golden St. George Award at the 39st Moscow International Film Festival.[1][2][3]
Katya Korolyova from Moscow, a student of the Faculty of Philology, won a grant to study the archives of the Russian poet Vladislav Khodasevich in Paris. Without telling her mother, instead of the study trip, she went to Abu Dhabi to build a career in modeling there. As a result, she actually turned out to be among the girls who had to please the Arab sheikhs for money. Thanks to the scandal arranged by Katya, the group of models is sent back to Russia.
Returning to Moscow, the adventurer Katya and her two newly-made provincial friends Liza and Galya rent an apartment for three and begin to live off wealthy, usually married, men. More experienced friends teach the naive Katya how to hunt oligarchs correctly in order to secure a luxurious and carefree future for herself. In pursuit of the dream of a beautiful life, friends will have to make a difficult choice and sacrifice something.
