Emperor

After taking a deserted Moscow, Napoleon occupies the Kremlin, where his loyal General Michel Clément, a descendant of a Russian boyar who came to Russia believing in the justice of Napoleon's campaign, constantly stands by his side. Meanwhile, the monks of the Chudov Monastery plot to assassinate the emperor by mining the Arsenal, and the young noblewoman Maria, seeking revenge for her dead brother, attempts to shoot Napoleon. The failed assassination attempt brings her into contact with Michel and the Polish officer Józef Sadok. Disguised as an actress in the monastery, Maria finds herself drawn into a dangerous game where rescue, suspicion, and a budding bond with Michel gradually change the fates of all involved.
