Profile of Peter the Great

The mood of Peter the Great is captivating and atmospheric. The plot centers around leadership, a royal family, and state affairs. It is a drama, period, and historical TV show. Stylistically, Peter the Great is a mini-series. In approach, it is serious and realistic. The pacing is slow. Peter the Great takes place, at least partly, at a royal court. The setting is Russia. It happens in the 18th century. Peter the Great is drawn from a biography, originally a true story, and based on a book.

Summary of Peter the Great

This is the story of Peter I, Tsar of Russia from 1682, and the constant struggle between him, his sister Sophia and the Streltsy, an important Russian military corp. The story depicts the efforts of Peter in transforming Russia in an "all European" country, importing scientists, costumes, technology and military tactics.
