«Who decided that Chelyabinsk is a harsh city? I would argue with that,» the actress stated. «The city is gloomy, but has fantastically, incredibly kind people. People who live by the code — people of their word, honor, and order. You have incredibly cool universities, which I have visited with my project „Olga Vuzova“. Maybe it is a bit dark because of the huge number of factories and the urban aesthetic, but it is not harsh.»

«Ravioli Oli» is Olga Buzova«s first major appearance on the big screen. The singer and TV host plays almost herself: her character, a «stage and screen star,» dreams of happiness with a successful businessman from Germany, who offers her to invest in a backwater dumpling factory, but then turns out to be a fraudster. Olya goes to Nizhniye Teplishki to meet her true destiny.

«It is a light comedy. In our time, when you always have to think, you want to go to the movies, turn off your brain and relax. We did everything for you,» the pop diva noted.

The film will be released on 5 February. Olga Buzova«s partners are Vladimir Yaglych, Marina Fedunkiv, Maxim Lagashkin, and Evelina Bledans.
