Werewolf (Season 1)

Werewolf (Оборотень, 2023) is a Russian crime drama you can watch online on iFILM. A man comes to in a strange, unwelcoming place with no idea who he is. His only lead is a postcard: someone named Pyotr once wrote to someone named Andrei.

Bit by bit, the man they call "Number Five" works out that he is that Andrei — Andrei Lazarev, an operative from a classified special-operations department. Pyotr is his handler, the voice in his ear, the one who calls the shots. Lazarev has dozens of clean jobs behind him, but the last one fell apart, and the cost was his erased memory. Now he has to reassemble himself from fragments and finish the mission he botched: stop a shipment of advanced weapons from reaching an international crime syndicate. Denis Shvedov plays the agent without a past; Maksim Shchyogolev is the man on the other end of the line.

Director Anna Kurbatova hangs the suspense on a simple hook — the hero learns the truth about himself at the same moment you do, and not all of it is easy to live with. Rated 18+, the tone runs hard. One for fans of amnesia spy stories with a false bottom. Stream Werewolf (2023) online on iFILM.
