THE FINAL JOURNEY OF THE ROMANOVS

A century old tragedy

Synopsis

Following the February 1917 Russian revolution, the Tsar Nicolas II abdicates. This film is an exceptional account of the tragic fate of the whole imperial family until its demise in July 1918. It is the story of a drama unfolding while History is on march, from the February and October revolutions to the end of WWI and the bloody Russian civil war.

Why was such a powerful mornarch abandoned by everyone, including his dearest cousin, King George of England? Did Lenin played a personal role in this outcome? Was murder the only solution?

One century later, the final weeks of the Romanovs are testament to the vanishing great European monarchies.
