Five years after their year together in Barcelona, The Spanish apartment (L'auberge espagnole) team of Xavier (Romain Duris), William (Kevin Bishop), Wendy (Kelly Reilly), Martine (Audrey Tatou) and Isabelle (Cécile de France) reunite for a Russian wedding. With their carefree student days behind them, the characters are close to thirty and dealing with more weighty career and relationship issues. Xavier is a freelance writer at a crossroads in his career and having trouble finding the right girl, though there are plenty on offer. He is still in contact with his ex, Martine (Audrey Tautou) who has a child from a man she no longer sees and his lesbian friend Isabelle who is about to conquer the stockbroking world.
Set in London, Paris and St Petersburg, Russian dolls (Les poupées russes) is a romantic comedy about growing up, making choices and finding love in unexpected places.
Special Agent Matti
Cool. Russian dolls is almost as good as the first film. There are lots of shots of naked girls and naked guys (tits, but, muff and even a dick!). Just like in real life.
