EKATERINA THE GREAT
MARINA ALEKSANDROVA

EKATERINA: PRETENDERS

Anything is possible, Your Majesty
and the letter may be poisoned.

Better safe than sorry. Be careful.

For the sake of the Russian Empire

and for overthrowing of the usurper
Sophie Auguste,

who called herself
Catherine the Great.

I want you to recognize me
as a real heir of the Russian throne.

And give me your oath
as I am the rightful Empress.

What a letter!

Many noble men are interested in
my future destiny.

Count Philipp Ferdinand von Limburg
of Westphalia.

- Russian secret Counsel Ivan Shuvalov.
- Yes.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Have you read the letter,
Nikita Ivanovich?

I've read and reread it, Your Majesty.

By the way this tramp offers me
titles and money.

For my loyal service that
she "expects" from me.

What position does
this woman offer you?

She wants me to secretly
get in touch with the Osmans.

To make their corps join Pugachev's
army against your own.

And when the time comes
and it will be obvious.

With the help of France.

To put her on the throne.

And when does the time come?

There is nothing about it in the letter.

I am expected just to
give my agreement.

But I don't understand
how I am going to do that.

Stepan Ivanovich,
what do you think?

Wait, Nikita Ivanovich.

If they show up again tell them
that you agree.

Make an appointment.

And tell me about it.

We can count on you, can't we?

Stepan Ivanovich, there
is no time for joking!

Nikita Ivanovich,
it was you who received the letter.

Yes, Your Majesty. They think of me
as the closest person to you.

This letter is not only an awful attempt
to make me betray you.

But it's a nice try...

To ruin your trust in me.

So they want to cut
off my right hand?

They wanted to create chaos,
to make you doubt.

As if you can't rely on my advice,
opinion or knowledge.

They wanted to weaken Your Majesty.

I have a lot of counsels,
Nikita Ivanovich.

Dozens of them.

But the decisions are mine.

I can't even trust myself entirely.

Well.

I suggest we catch
this imposter at once.

And bring her to Petersburg
before it is not too late.

How can we do that?

She is young. And she's good-looking.

We need someone who can steal
her young heart.

Who will seduce her and evoke
her passion.

Or maybe even love.

So we need someone
who is a charming person himself.

So we can catch this bird in our cage.

We are risking it again.

Let's go, Your Highness.

Let yourself have a break, Count.

You could have died so many times
in all those battles.

You are afraid that my stupid
husband will discover us?

I can't understand it.

Why didn't they judge me?

So, that is what you are thinking about.

You can thank me for that.

I asked the Empress to help you.

You've saved me from the exile.

Kiss my hands.

What are you ready to
sacrifice for me, Count?

I will do anything.

When I become the Empress...

You will be my right hand.

- And if you help with our Empress...
- Your Highness!

I'm grateful for saving me
from the exile.

But I must be honest.

Our relations are for pleasure.

There is no strong feeling between us.

We must never discuss such things.

The latest reforms in Russia were made
in the beds of strong women.

Elizaveta Petrovna,
Ekaterina Alexeievna...

They were married at that time.

Just as I am.

My destiny is much like Ekaterina's.

You still have no destiny,
Natalia Alexeievna.

But I have a desire to rule the Empire.

I know that I can achieve
glory and prosperity for Russia.

It's necessary just...

To leave in the past
your barbarian traditions.

What exactly?

For example slavery.

It separates wives from husbands
or even from their children.

The slave's market is just over there
near the Blue Bridge.

Just give the money.

And choose anyone you like.

A man buys a twelve-year-old girl
and nobody feels any shame.

But they all know his motives.

Landowners are devil's servants.

My father gave freedom to all
peasants in Gessen.

And there was no harm in it.

Why can't we do the same in Russia?

Yes.

It is a noble beast.

It is called Polkan.

An offspring of an Arabic horse.

His nickname is very funny.

Creamy? Butter?

Sour Cream, your Majesty.

Sour Cream!

Oh, yeah.

- And his son is so nice!
- That's right.

He is yours now.

It's an expensive gift.

He will be my loyal companion.

Arabic horses...

They are from fairy tales.

How did you manage to find them?

Horses are my passion.

Do you have any other passions
in your life?

Overwhelming ones, Your Majesty.

How is your brother?

If something bad happened in Gatchina,
Katya would write to me.

I miss Grigory.

Yes, people can change.

I saw a completely different man
in Gatchina.

But still, I see some of his former traits

in your character.

Time has no mercy on anyone.

Except you, Your Majesty.

That is not true.

I feel in the prime of my life.

And I have a lot of great things to do.

But the time of passions is over.

Now I need a loyal ally.

Loyalty and devotion.

They are the most important for me.

Help me.

Not now.

Alexei Grigoryevich.

Yes.

But I won't apologize for that.

Because I am not ashamed of it.

Oh, yeah.

I have to hurry up.

I have a lot to do today.

As you wish, Your Majesty.

Oh dear children!

Oh my dear kids!

What are we going to do?

What are we going to do?

Ivan Yakovlevich
what's the name of your horse?

Gavriil Romanovich, I didn't name it
because it's a cheap one.

So it could die without being baptized.

Only God knows that.

And what's the name of yours?

Felitsia.

She has got very clever eyes.

We are going to be exiled,
Gavriil Romanovich.

It is just a male-horse!

She has been lying here
for more than a day.

- We have chosen the wrong path.
- Help!

He is alive.

Good man...

Good man!

Come on! Come on!

Here we are!

You are alive.

Just drink some water.

Drink some.

Alive, indeed.

Good man!

Who is to blame for this?

Pugachev's men.

When I saw them coming
I'd left my mansion.

With my family and all my property.

These bastards chased me.

And all the slaves have gone with them.

They've destroyed my home.

They've killed my wife.

And my dearest daughter...

And whose soldiers were there?

They were staying at my place.

They escorted me and tried to protect.

My dear fellows...

Please, get my Aglaya down.

Please, cut the ropes off her!

I can't believe that it is true.

Ivan Yakovlevich...

What is going on?

We are at war, Gavriil Romanovich.
At war.

A message from Orenburg, Your Majesty.

Pugachev couldn't seize the city.
He is turning to Kazan now.

They've won.

With God's help. Our heroes!

Despite all those losses and famine,
Reinsdorp fought for the city.

But Kazan...

Kazan is in danger my Queen.

They have only 700 men in the army.
Few guns and cannons.

And many of the foundries
are controlled by Pugachev.

How many people
does this bastard have?

Well, approximately twenty thousand.

So did this masculine
army achieve any success?

Yes, it did.

Recently, we executed one man
in Orenburg.

Pugachev's chieftain Khlopusha,

whose gang was defeated
near the Tatishev's tower.

They beheaded him
and put his head on a spear.

Then it was placed at the
square as a threat.

Well, this impostor couldn't be stopped
by such a treat.

Send some corps to Kazan.
From everywhere.

Send students, teachers or workers.

Kazan must win this battle.

Stepan Ivanovich!

Your Highness!

Stepan Ivanovich, I need to see
the portrait of the imposter.

If he had some spare time
on his way to Kazan,

we would send a painter
for him immediately.

But the imposter is a busy man, you see.

We have no portrait, Your Highness.

I have to go.

I am not joking.

I am not kidding, Your Highness.
There is no portrait.

But we know a lot of things about him.

His name is Yemelyan.

He is thirty and a Cossack.

He fought against the Turks in our army.

He got a medal, then
was wounded and deserted.

- Where is he from?
- From the Don.

If you want I can give you
his list of orders and ideas.

Where did you get it?

It is given from man to man.

We have found ten of them
in Moscow and Petersburg.

Some sources say that he sends
his portraits as well.

But we can't find any.

One salesman at Sytny market held one
in his hands to give us.

But the bandits didn't let him do that.

They took the portrait and beat him
to death.

Kicked his teeth and damaged his eye.

It's a cruel century, Your Highness.

A cruel one.

Luka!

Listen, I want to go incognito
to Sytny market.

Can you find me some simple clothes?

For what?

It's obvious!

I will be like Peter the Great.

I will talk to peasants,
to hear their thoughts and ideas.

Your Highness...

I will go myself and
talk to some folks.

But I'm sure I won't hear
any smart things there.

Luka, I am writing my thoughts
about the State!

It is important to know
what my future men think of me.

I will have to make a report
of your strange wish.

- Or they will put me to prison.
- You will lose your job!

Well, it's better than being
responsible for your death.

If you help me...

I will give you a promotion.

I will give you money.

A lot of money.

We will go together.

Luka, have you recently seen
your reflection?

I am Russian.

Just like those people at the market.

But with some rank.

And some wealthy ancestors.

They were Ethiopian counts.

You're worrying too much.

As if I want to go for a walk across
Petersburg on an elephant.

I can cover my face with some cloth.

Luka, it was a joke.

I am going with Razumovsky
to count Vorontsov for his costume ball.

You frightened me, Your Highness!
Indeed!

I can't understand your joke.
Of course I will prepare everything.

You are a smart guy!

I see you spend more time with Pavel.
You are seen together.

I am very glad.

I'll give you my friendly advice.

Don't let your beloved go.

If you let him free...

You can understand
that you've lost him forever.

But I see it in you. Your strength.

You are creative.
You can't be boring for people.

A passionate nature.

Easy-going.

Easy-going?

(In German) Krone.

Well, it's because I have a noble
and attentive man by my side.

Not everybody is as lucky as you are.

It's surprising how insensitive
men can be.

Even those who understand
women's feelings.

Then I am lucky.

Well, I am very happy.

I am grateful
for your attention to Pavel.

But, nevertheless meine liebe...

I know that you are not in a hurry
to spend the night together.

I'm going to check up,

I'll start from tonight,
and continue until the birth of a baby.

You can't ignore Pavel
and forget about your duties.

You must be his wife.

Of course, Your Highness.

Oh, you fool stole them not from me,
but from yourself!

Vlas, first beat him with a whip
then take him to the Blue bridge.

- Sell him.
- For what?!

I have done nothing!

What am I punished for Your Highness?

- I beg for mercy!
- You stole the flowers!

So, I am fed up with you.
You will pay for that.

- I don't want to see him.
- Your Highness!

It wasn't me!

I've noticed really...

All the bushes are cut.

So he cut them
and sold them. A fraud!

How much will he cost?

They won't pay much for him
on the Blue Bridge.

Sell him to the first man
who is ready to pay.

But buy a new one for sure!

And if it wasn't him?

I don't care whether it was him or not.

He is a gardener.

So he is responsible for that.

I got it.

It's a rule.
If I start to disregard it...

What will happen?

You will be the first
who will get on my neck.

Do your job.

I will buy him. Here is a document.

How much is the tax?

The tax is three coins.

Here you are.

This is your freedom certificate.
As if you've paid for yourself.

A tax is paid. Take it.

Don't spoil it with blood.

Leave the capital.
Don't show up at outposts.

Where could I go?

To the new lands.

Your arms and head are good.

You will be able to survive.

May God save you!

Vlas!

And you?

It's none of your business.
I cut all the flowers!

I thought the Count
wouldn't have noticed.

Dress up.

Don't think badly of me.

A nice picture, Your Highness.

- Is she Venus?
- Yes.

A goddess of love.

Ancient Greeks believed that she gave
some chosen men the gift of seduction.

Do you think you are chosen by Venus?

I don't think so.

I am sure of that.

Wait I have an urgent message for you.

Anthony Ulrich died in Holmogory.

I saw a report about the prisoners
at my work.

He's marked as 'a dropped out'
on the 4th May.

We know what it means.

Four of his children are alive.

Well-done, Count!

Now we have
bait for the fish.

Now the Danish Queen will be
against Russia.

Denmark is a powerful country.

If Russia loses in this war
against the Turks, it will be weakened.

So Queen Juliana Maria will be able
to take her revenge.

And what if Russia wins?

I must apologize.
Some matters in the Treasury.

Your Highness.

- I'm sorry for interrupting.
- Oh, stop it.

Count Andrey is just curious.

He likes my painting.

I am not surprised.

Well this picture is...

In his style.

I didn't know you
were well versed in art.

Not art, Your Highness,
but human's nature.

You should stop evoking
the Count's imagination.

With such pictures.

Luka!
Aren't these clothes for the winter?

Well, you are warm, Your Highness.

Palace is heated even in summer.

And simple people...

They don't burn wood from April.
So they put on warm clothes.

Without them you can freeze to death.

To death?

It's good for the costume ball.

Good job, Luka.

We are going to be remarkable
among satyrs and pharaohs.

You are right.

You will be too hot in them, indeed.

Your Highness,
I'll find something else.

No, no Luka! Everything is fine, really.

Don't worry, it's all clean.

Thank you. You can be free.

I don't like this idea, Pavel Petrovich.

Thank you for coming with me.

Are you sure it is worth doing?

Yes, I am.

Two new theaters are opened in Moscow.

One has Dmitrievsky troupe,
the other has Italians.

People in Moscow are happy about it.
Concert halls are full.

Ivan Perfilievich.

I'm sure you are the best chief
of the theatrical department.

There is no doubt.

I want to discuss another thing with you.

Do you know the French king's protege,
Viscount Lefebvre?

He is a Mason just like you.

Yes, he is. I know him, that's right.
A mason.

I'm going to have a
difficult meeting with him.

For sure he will demand us
to fight a war with Porta.

But I can't finish it now.

It means we are going to lose
all we've gained for six years.

I need more time.

Can you help?

Or maybe influence him?

Your Majesty,
I'd like to clarify something.

Mr. Lefebvre is out of our circle.

He is a member of another group.

Whose views on initiation are
completely different.

Ivan Perfilievich
are you eager to help or not?

I'm going to build a Masonic Lodge.

So I am ready.

I will invite Mr. Lefebvre.

He will be impressed by the size
of my future monument.

He will come to my
place on the island.

He will put a golden brick
in the basement of the temple...

Which island?

I have a title.

I'm a great master.

I have fourteen lodges under me.

So I get to name an island
after my surname.

Yelagin.

So where is your Yelagin island?

Between the Big and the Middle Nevka,
your Majesty.

Well, I thought that
this island was mine.

Yours?

But Count Potemkin told me
that it was his island.

He brought me the documents
and took a lot of my money.

But the island is yours?

I mean, was it yours?

See this man who sells meat.

I want to start a conversation with him.

You can come and stand close.

As if you choose what to buy.

But don't be too obvious.

Or he can suspect you.

And hit your head.

You've had a good hunt.

I killed a duck yesterday.

But I need to buy some gunpowder.

So where can you get it?

You can't find any gunpowder
or bullets now.

And if they found out
that you've asked for it.

They would catch you at once.

They would question you,
"why do you need it" and so on.

Hot pies! Hot pies!

Nice pies! Try the pies!

- Hello, take one.
- Oh, my lord.

Can you tell where
I can find a portrait?

Do you understand
what portrait I mean?

No, I don't.

The one that comes with the letters.

Hot pies!

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Well done, you managed it.

Why didn't you help me?

I need to rescue myself?

In a decent fight everybody
stands for himself.

Do you want a coin?

I've heard the Emperor
Pyotr Fedorovich survived.

And now he is saving other men.

Do you see his picture?

I want to see it.

Why?

People say it is miraculous.

It's nonsense.

Give me your coin.

Follow me.

Wait here.

It is a dangerous place.

We'd better go away.

Mark my word, you won't get
any good of this place.

Kolyn!

These two are here for you.

Who are you?

I am Pasha.

My surname is Romakhin.
I am a cobbler.

I am a servant Andrey.

What are you doing here?

We've heard something.

They say you have a portrait.

I want to see the real Emperor.

Are you ready to sacrifice your life
for the real Emperor?

- Gavriil!
- What?

Give me the pistol.

So which of you?

Who loves the Emperor more? You?

Or you?

Here you are.

Well...

A good boy!

Well, Andrey show us!

Show us you are not a coward.

I've forgotten to reload it!

- Give it back!
- A hero!

You are a good boy Andrey!

Such people as you...

The Emperor needs such people.

Let's drink.

Let's drink for our Emperor
Pyotr Fedorovich.

And for the death of a German slut
named Katie!

And a picture...

A picture.

The picture is here.

- Sell it to me!

Why do you need it?

Come with us to Kazan.

Join Pyotr Fedorovich's army.
You can see him with your own eyes.

I want it as a charm.

- A picture of a strong man.
- Are you weak?

Yes, I am.

We will test that.

Zayts?

- Do you have bullets in yours?
- Of course I do!

Now it's your turn.

Pasha.

Now, we've caught you, eagles!

Who would give you a loaded one?

Move!

Pavel Petrovich! Drink it!

Drink it! The more the better.

We shouldn't have gone there.

Not in vain. Not in vain at all.

Take him, Luka!

Pavel Petrovich had a lot of fun
at the costume ball.

Hold him tight!

Your High-
Your Highness!

- What's that?
- Don't touch!

It's mine!

Good morning, Your Majesty!

Did Orenburg lose?

No, I have other
news, about the heir.

At four o'clock at night...

Pavel Petrovich came home
absolutely drunk.

He couldn't go up the stairs.

His servant was questioned.

He said that His Majesty

and Count Razumovsky went to
the costume ball to Vorontsov.

He finally got drunk!

His Highness is having rest.

Your Majesty.

Pavel Petrovich!

Does Natalia Alexeievna
know about it?

Of your unpredictable growing up?

Give it back!

Don't you recognize?

The Emperor Pyotr Fedorovich,
who was killed by you!

Who has suddenly come back to life!

I am afraid of nothing now.

Luka!

Bring me a bucket of ice cold water.

Pavel Petrovich needs to chill.

Of course, Your Majesty.

It is not him.

Who?

This man.

The man from the portrait...

He is not Pyotr Fedorovich.

This man is...

He is strong and mean.

But my father was...

He was kind and weak.

I am so sorry.

I am sorry he has left us mother!

Your Highness.

- What?
- Drink it.

Don't worry it's alright.

You must be afraid of vodka
in the evening.

It's safe in the morning.

It becomes medicine.

Louis XVI, the blessed king
of France and Navarra,

is calmly waiting for Russia to join
the union of peaceful nations.

What does King
Louis expect from us?

France asks you to sign a global
agreement with the Turks urgently.

We think people are tired of blood
and devastation.

So they want peace.

With God's help we will
end the war this year.

With our victory.

His Majesty gave this to you.

It's a project of agreement
between you and Porta.

Thanks, I will examine it.

My king hopes Your Majesty will
come to a clever conclusion.

And this agreement
has a few conditions.

Your army will leave the coasts
of the Black and Azov seas,

and the Russian navy will leave
the Mediterranean sea.

The expedition troops
will leave Poland.

And Russia will be satisfied with
its present borders.

I am grateful for Louis and his offer.

Give him my respect.

My king gives a helping hand
to the great Empress.

Louis knows that Russia
is at war from all sides.

With Poland, High Porta.

And with the rebels.

So the rebels seized a vast territory,

and they made threats to Moscow.

But I have some good news.

It will bring you joy, Your Majesty.

As we know, the numerous Romanov
dynasty has just one heir.

The great count Pavel Petrovich.

But the providence decided to provide
a real female descendant.

The daughter of Elizaveta Petrovna.

A great countess Elizaveta
from the Romanov's dynasty.

I was honored...

To transfer you her letter.

King Louis and Sultan Abdul Hamid...

both hope for the reunion
of the family.

Thank you, Viscount.

I've heard enough today
to be able to make the right decision.

Your Majesty...

More guardians came to protect me.

But you will always be
my best knight, Pan Kazimierz.

What's with all the fuss?

All your fears are for nothing.

Don't cut me by
accident, Pan Kazimierz.

I can't teach you to hold your sword
properly if you don't want to.

You are free.

Have you seen whom they sent to us?

Fools!

From the court's army.

You are looking funny.

You are too self-centred,
who cares about us.

The Russian Empress
is very interested in your death.

A drop of poison
or a knife in your stomach.

Nonsense!

Ekaterina wants to
be a European leader.

She wants to write to Voltaire.

She won't act like a criminal.

Tonight you are coming with me
to a performance to Malibran.

Yesterday a party at the English Embassy,
today a performance.

You can't be so
careless, Your Highness!

Poor Kazimierz.

The sun overheated you.

Your fantasies won't make me
stay indoors.

Listen!

All these rich ambassadors,
kings and counts see you as a pawn.

They play their own game.

You are a boring man!

As if I am not a pawn for you.

I can't wait when I
get to Petersburg,

when I cry on the graves of my ancestors,
the Romanov's family!

Read in the end about the palace.

I'm waiting with impatience...

The moment when I enter
the Winter Palace.

When I see the Neva River.

From its windows.

When I sit on the throne holding
the scepter

and the cruciger in the other hand.

What a story!

Indeed.

Nevertheless, if we take it
seriously it seems...

A well-planned game,
which they want us to play.

And to play it according
to their rules.

We are going to understand these rules,
but two things are obvious.

The first thing...

France is very well informed.

It knows all about our private affairs.
And the second...

King Louis can gather
his army any time.

By the name of that tramp Elizaveta
and attack us.

It is written without mistakes.
The handwriting is good.

What do you think?

Well I am not a specialist but...

To my mind...

As we look at these round letters.
It was written by a woman.

Moreover!

She knows Russian well
and it is her native language.

Let me have a look.

But...

I have an impression that she wrote it
without confidence, however.

But this signature
'Elizaveta Romanova'.

How did she dare to sign this surname?

What's the real name of that woman,
Stepan Ivanovich?

It's hard to find her real name,
Your Majesty.

At different times across Europe
she was known as...

Under surnames like Frank.

Scheel, Trémouille.

She had names like Ali Emet.

Princess Eleonora de Voldomir
and Princess Azov.

Countess Pimberg.

Princess Alzhbeta Draganova.

Draganova?

Draganova, Your Majesty.

Draganova.

Draganova...

Just like an insect.

Tarakanova.

I wish you to burn in hell!
