The film follows the challenges faced by a struggling Russian factory aiming to turn profitable. The protagonist initiates the implementation of lean manufacturing, overcoming resistance from both blue and white-collar workers. Seeking guidance, he taps into unique American management expertise to revitalize Russian factories. Despite encountering hurdles, his determination prevails, ultimately transforming the factory into a profitable enterprise, showcasing the resilience of the human spirit.

The film is an almanac adaptation of three books by Andrey Kuzmichev: "Bosov's pearls. Jokes for bosses and subordinates", "Business fans. Stories about those who are building our future" and "The best books for business. B4B in Russian." It combines witty stories about life in the office, business philosophy and real success stories. The main focus is on the head of the department, Artem Bosov, whose unusual management style raises a lot of questions from subordinates: from nicknames like "tsar" and "woodpecker" to strange corporate rituals. At the same time, the stories of entrepreneurs who, contrary to myths and stereotypes, managed to build a successful business in Russia are revealed. The film not only raises questions about working relationships, but also inspires new business ideas based on best practices and literary advice.
