In 1984 Moscow, Boris Arkadiev, a renowned stand-up comedian, grapples with external repression and self-doubt that strain his relationships. As fame and KGB scrutiny intensify, Boris struggles to maintain his comedic edge. Desperate, he embraces American "insult humor" as a subversive outlet, risking everything for one last laugh against the system.
