Synopsis:

The story follows the dramatic journey of Princess Anastasia Romanov, the youngest granddaughter of Tsar Nicholas II. As the Russian Revolution looms, the Dowager Empress flees to Paris, leaving the rest of the Romanov family behind. They are ambushed and killed during an Imperial ball, with Anastasia believed to be the sole survivor.

A decade later, in St. Petersburg, an orphan named Anya, suffering from amnesia, is approached by con men Dmitry and Vlad. They plan to present her as the missing princess to claim a reward offered by the Dowager Empress. As they journey to Paris, Anya’s memories begin to resurface, and she starts to believe she may indeed be Anastasia.

Meanwhile, Gleb, a dedicated Russian officer whose father was a revolutionary, is tasked with capturing Anya, suspecting her to be the lost princess. The trio reaches Paris, where they encounter the vibrant post-revolution Russian émigré community.

In Paris, Anya confronts the Dowager Empress, Gleb’s pursuit, and the truth of her identity. The world watches as the mystery of Anastasia Romanov is unraveled, determining if she is truly the lost princess or merely a myth.
