1715, Russia. Rumors of the end of the world and the second coming are walking around the country. The most daring and desperate preachers claim that Sovereign Pyotr Alekseevich is the Antichrist himself. This idea penetrates more and more firmly into the hearts and souls of not only ordinary people, but even the king's inner circle. So who was Peter for Russia? A great ruler who looked far ahead and managed to make the whole world respect his state, or a great destroyer, an enemy of all the old, true, stupid overseas ax chopped up his native, original Russian roots? The contradictory personality of Peter I appears in all his strength and weakness against the background of his complex relationship with his son, Tsarevich Alexei.
