Still Waters (Russian: Тихие омуты) is 2000 Russian film by Soviet/Russian director Eldar Ryazanov.

Plot

Anton M. Kashtanov (Alexander Abdulov) is a talented surgeon and head of a large clinic. He decides to escape his domineering and bitchy wife Pauline in the village of Still Waters. Here he reconnects with his childhood friend, the head of the local nature reserve. This pastoral idyll is upset by one thing: at the time of Kashtanov's departure, two million dollars also disappeared from his foundation.

Two strong women launch independent investigations: a police detective and a TV reporter...
