The Washing Machine

In a cramped, stylish penthouse that feels both like a sanctuary and a pressure cooker, the ordinary rhythm of everyday life is suddenly jolted by an unexpected catalyst: a seemingly innocuous washing machine. Its presence turns the humdrum existence of the residents upside down, hinting at secrets that ripple far beyond the confines of the household. The story centers on a young couple navigating this sudden shift, their relationship tested by the oddball disturbances that begin to surface.

Living under one roof are three eccentric sisters who each bring a distinct flavor to the household’s chemistry. Vida exudes a magnetic, seductive confidence that borders on the theatrical, while Ludmilla watches the world through a quieter, more voyeuristic lens, often drifting into the realm of intuition. Maria adds a layer of daring unpredictability, her bisexuality and enigmatic black cat underscoring a free‑spirited, slightly mischievous aura. Their interactions crackle with playful tension, flirtation, and an undercurrent of rivalry, creating a dynamic that feels both intimate and wildly unpredictable.

Enter Alexander Stacev, a detective whose professional curiosity is sparked by the oddities surrounding the sisters’ lives. Paired with his lawyer girlfriend Irina, he becomes an uneasy observer drawn into the tangled web of personalities and whispered hints that the apartment seems to exhale. The tone of the film balances dark humor with a surreal, almost noirish atmosphere, inviting the audience to linger on the strange allure of everyday objects turned uncanny. As the characters dance around one another, the narrative weaves a tapestry of intrigue, desire, and mystery, leaving viewers eager to discover what lies beneath the surface of this off‑beat, stylishly charged world.
