The TV series "House Arrest" tells the story of a mayor who tries to regain his power and wealth. Anikeev is a typical high-ranking official who doesn't mind solving matters in exchange for large bribes. One such case ends with him being fired, losing his privileges, and being sentenced to restricted freedom of movement. Arkady Borisovich is sent to his registered place of residence - a communal apartment, where he is awaited by old acquaintances and tenants of the building who are against him.
