Katerina Verbitskaya was raised as a noble lady with her godmother Anna Chervinskaya but for the whole world she was only the property of Peter Chervinsky. She falls in love with the nobleman Alexey Kosach who knows nothing about her origin. On the way to freedom and love, the serf maid will have to overcome a lot of trials.
I was watching this period drama from Ukraine then Amazon started inserting ads which is not fine to me. I stopped watching and removed my whole watch list and didn't tune in to Amazon streaming for over a year. I noticed that the ads were removed from some of their shows so I resumed watching this series.
The series is poorly written.. All the young actors, men and women, sound like they are reading their lines. The actress playing the lead, Katya is not even that pretty for 2 men to fight over. The other girl who plays her friend, Natalia is so awkward. She acts like she's in a High School play, very amateurish. I was only able to tolerate 3 episodes. I proceeded to read the synopses from episode 4 all the way to episode 23 then I watched the last episode 24. I like period dramas from Russia and Ukraine but this one is terrible and boring. The love polygon (chain) is done to death and with very little entertainment IMHO.
Not recommended.
