As it is an anthology series, expect every single episode to feature a different story. All of them, however, involve people who believe themselves to be the modern- day descendants of the Romanov family. Who are they? Well, they are the last imperial dynasty to rule over Russia from 1613 to 1917 until the Bolshekivs seized power. As history goes, in 1918, revolutionary Bolshevik soldiers murdered the Romanovs. However, it is rumored that at least one of them, Princess Anastasia, escaped the firing squads, leading to many conspiracy theories, including the tale presented in this series.
