In this sharp, irreverent comedy, Margarita (Anna Baryshnikov) – a disgraced fashion designer with a dangerously low credit score – enters a reality show with a six-figure cash prize to save her babushka’s West Hollywood apartment. But as the competition heats up, slick producer Nicol (Camila Mendes) pressures her to turn her family’s struggles into spectacle, forcing Margarita to choose: play along for the win, or reclaim her story, one unhinged look at a time.

“Popov delivers a boisterous tale of a woman coming into her own, told with real humor and heart.” — Variety

“The American dream gets a quirky wardrobe upgrade in Idiotka, a lightweight but winning comedy . . . the movie’s devotion to family solidarity guarantees a measure of genuine feeling.” — New York Times
