Set during the eponymous "Khruschev Thaw" of the late 1950s and early 1960s. The business is movie-making, not advertisements (guess there wouldn't have been any advertisements in the Soviet Union). Only a few episodes are available online with English subtitles, unfortunately.
Pretty interesting article on a Russian show called "The Thaw" that is obviously patterned off of Mad Men.
