Six Empty Seats is a provocative drama about the diverse group of people who strive for happiness at the cost of family, morals, or even human life. After all, we live only once.
Six colleagues from a small real-estate firm accidentally miss their mutual flight, thus miraculously avoiding a plane crash. The eluded disaster triggers the insight that none of them had a chance to live their dream. With doubts set aside, the group agrees to commit theft.
With nothing but bags full of cash, ex-clerks go on the run in pursuit of the most cherished desires and ambitions. Unfortunately, they choose to rob the wrong guy and they have become the prey. And on top of all that – there is a rat among them.
The series has a unique structure, with each episode introducing one of the survivors’ background and features an unprecedented, star-studded Russian cast with award-winning actors from the leading roles to the smallest cameos, thus delivering an electrifying performance.
