Yeva is a maverick scientist, trying and failing to breed rare snails in her trailer. To fund her research, she works for a marriage agency, Romeo Meets Yulia, dating Western bachelors looking for a docile Ukrainian bride. Increasingly demoralised and reckless, Yeva and her trailer become embroiled in a haphazard stunt against the marriage industry. So begins a journey across a country on the brink of war, led by three angry women with a truckful of kidnapped bachelors and Lefty, a last-of-his-kind snail with one final shot at perpetuating his species.
