The Cigarette Girl of Mosselprom is a charming, silent romantic comedy that tells the tale of a young man who falls in love with the title character (Yulia Solnsteva). She becomes a famous film star, and herself falls in love-not with the hero, but with her cameraman. No one ever gets what he or she truly wants, though they continue to pursue their lost dreams to the bitter end. Reveling in the unexpected throughout, the Cigarette Girl of Mosselprom is capped by an adroit surprise ending.
