Synopsis
Gloomy River (2021) is a sweeping Russian period drama you can watch online on iFILM, adapted from Vyacheslav Shishkov's novel. It follows three generations of the Gromov family, with one man at its center: Prokhor.
His grandfather Danila built the family fortune through robbery; his father Pyotr turned that money into a business and handed everything to his son. Prokhor has a real head for enterprise — he opens up the Siberian taiga and raises a steel mill — but the wealthier he becomes, the more the man curdles into a monster. Greed, love and a bloodstained inheritance pull tight against the wild backdrop of Siberia. The draw here is the cast: Aleksandr Gorbatov as Prokhor, alongside Yuliya Peresild and Aleksandr Baluev. One for viewers who like their family sagas big, costumed and morally dark. Stream every episode of Gloomy River online on iFILM.
