Vdova Famous Russian Serial
Many would dream of living like Polina Vorontsova (Victoria Tolstoganova). She has a wonderful loving husband and three healthy and beautiful children. And also no problems with money.

But Polina’s perfect glossy world collapses in an instant when her husband is killed and the dolce vita turns to the unfortunate widow with its reverse side.
Now Polina is forced to pay for the fact that she stubbornly turned a blind eye to the truth – her husband, and her father and brother are port smugglers who are “not squeamish” about drugs.
And her beloved was killed because he stole the goods from a person who could not be “touched” under any circumstances – from the main drug lord of the Schiller region (Eugene Sidikhin). And now, Polina must pay him a debt for her husband either stolen drugs, or a huge amount of money.
True, there is one problem – cocaine disappeared somewhere, but the woman has absolutely no money, because all her finances were managed by her late husband. Really, in order to pay, Pauline will have to take her husband’s drug business into her own hands?
