"Karamora" is a Russian TV series in the genre of thriller and alternative history, created at the studio of director Danila Kozlovsky DK Entertainment. The series premiered on January 20, 2022 on the Start video service.
The main character, an anarchist nicknamed Karamora, discovers that the monarchical dynasties and the highest nobility of Russia and Europe have a power beyond human capabilities (they are vampires) and have long been secretly ruling the world. Having lost his beloved and close friends in the fight, Karamora declares war on the secret society.
All this is happening against the background of a real silver Age in Russia. And the real story becomes a spoiler, but you don't know how to twist with its details. Historical characters get a fair amount, but, again, a certain frame is maintained. Stolypin is shown as a strong-willed and brave vampire who is at least trying to do something. Stalin (still a young revolutionary Koba) is a good organizer who is not shy about funds, but has a problem with personnel. Leo Tolstoy is a former vampire who was cured of vampirism with difficulty. Rasputin is an advanced sorcerer and a subtle schemer, greedy for women (he is generally shown here much more spectacular and deeper than his prototype). It is very noticeable that there is no desire to mock history, the authors wanted to play with the images of famous people of that era.
Well, why I decided to add a movie here, there are visual elements of steampunk in it.
