      The end of the 19th century. Due to a conflict with his father, young Prince Lev Golitsyn finds himself in St. Petersburg for the first time. Returning from abroad, he knows nothing about Russia. But Russia is destined to learn about him, and the prince faces a challenging journey from a noble aristocrat to a national pride. Golitsyn must find true love, gain loyal friends, confront treacherous enemies, and discover his destiny. As he moves toward his goal, he becomes an obstacle not only for foreign wine traders unwilling to lose their monopoly in the Russian market but also for corrupt officials. However, Prince Lev Golitsyn is not one to back down from his plans, even if it means paying a very high price for it. Danila Kozlovsky, actor: "I immediately resonated internally with this story. There is something special and unlike anything else in it. I really like this complex, obsessed, crazy hero. An endless romantic, altruist, and enthusiast. Of course, I want the audience to learn his full dramatic personal story and love this amazing madman." Sergey Chekalov, director ("Constantinople" (18+), "Bison: The Model's Case" (18+), "Emergency Exit" (18+)): "At certain historical moments, there is a need for the country to learn about its heroes. Lev Golitsyn's act is comparable to heroism because he raised Russia's prestige to the highest level. His uncompromising and obsessive love for his work and for the Russian land is what struck me about Lev Sergeyevich when I began to study his biography. He was devoted to his work and culture, to the people and the country he loved infinitely. The time has come for the audience to learn about him, for the country to learn about him. This is our pride." Also starring in the series are: Svetlana Ivanova, Ksenia Kuteppova, Anton Shagin, Sergey Lavygin, Danila Krasnov, Anastasia Krasovskaya, Ekaterina Voronina, Sergey Volkov, Alla Onopher, Maxim Matuzny, Nikita Tarasov, and others.
