Years ago me and my brother saw these on Israeli daytime TV, hence not sure whether it’s an actual film, a made-for-TV movie or series. In the scene, a blonde young man, speaking in what sounded like a pseudo-Russian/Polish gibberish is trying to make friends at a party in, presumably, America (we’re native Russian speakers so to us his lines seemed particularly ridiculous). For example, he compliments a girl with the following: “O, stroynaya babonya!” (Babunya being Polish for “grandma”, “bAba” – rude Russian for female, and “stroynaya” – slim/well-built).
Next, they start dancing, the character pulls the girl too close, she retracts and he expresses his anger by yelling: “KRAPKA POSHNYASTA!.. You’re not a real rock-n-roll girl!”
Now, krapka is Polish/Ukrainian for period/dot, poshnyasta sounds like an invented cursing adjective, and the rest of it – well, that’s what makes us wonder years later, what was the source of this craziness. Any leads appreciated.
I’m not sure how long ago “years ago” was, so this may be too recent. Could it be “The Dissidents?”

It is too recent, that was way before — also, thanks for the suggestion, but the characters here speak their native Estonian (not a Slavic language). Interestingly enough, the character with the longest hair of the three looks somewhat like the one I’m trying to attribute.
Would it be possible for you to narrow down what year you saw it in, so we know what qualifies as too recent?
I wish I could — it was obviously pre-COVID, either 2010’s or the 2000’s, but the production could be earlier than that, maybe even late ’90s, as it got to local cable TV. I’m not even sure it was American, could easily be Canadian/Australian. I have to say I tried googling parts of these phrases but nothing comes up that would even remotely resemble it.
i doubt this does anything, but i also picked up from this link..its a daytime soap..but you already said that..https://www.facebook.com/groups/396679502113687/about
Thanks, I already posted on a much larger group of 500K members. No one and nothing except for a few awwws.
…apparently I’ve posted on that group too. All quiet.
