A multi-part archival drama-detective series about members of noble families from the Vladimir Governorate and Estland, as well as European counts of Venetian descent.

A Multi-Episode Archival Drama-Detective

The cast of this saga is not limited to the Strahlborn and the Derionzini. Alongside them appear other representatives of the nobility — the Lyalins, the Tregubovs, the Zakharyins, the Yuniches, the Molchanovs, and many other families. All of them were directly involved in the events described. Even figures who seem to pass through this epic only briefly prove to be part of a complex and richly layered narrative.

At the heart of the story lies the marriage of the von Strahlborn brothers, hussars by service, to the Tregubov sisters in Vladimir Province.

“Case concerning the demarcation of estate lands in the village of Lychevo, Yuryev District, and the determination of ownership of a cherry tree situated on the disputed boundary between the estates of landowners Vzmetneva and Derionzini.”
