Description: Set on a luxury yacht off the coast of Cabo San Lucas, this tropical getaway with a cast of power-hungry elites turns sour when they find out maybe they don't control as much of the world as they thought. Aleksandr Kasianenko is a billionaire Russian oligarch and Bianca is his sexy supermodel girlfriend, and the yacht's namesake. Five powerful and famous couples are invited on the yacht's maiden voyage: a senator and his lovely but unhappy wife, a very attractive movie star and his needy ex-waitress girlfriend, a famous black footballer and his interior designer wife, a male Latin singing sensation and his older English boyfriend, and a maverick writer with his Asian journalist female friend. Russian mobster Sergei Zukov is a man with a grudge against Aleksandr. And the brother of Ina, Sergei's Mexican beauty queen girlfriend, is a master pirate with orders to hold The Bianca and its illustrious guests for ransom.
