Научи меня жить (Season 1)

Teach Me to Live (Nauchi menya zhit, 2016) is a Russian crime series by Valentin Donskov that you can watch online on iFILM. The body of an unidentified woman turns up in town, and the ritual staging of the scene points to one thing: a serial killer is at work nearby.

Detective Rita Storozheva gets an unusual partner — psychiatrist Ilya Lavrov, who has helped hunt killers like this before and reads their minds better than any case file. The partnership is rough going. Both of them carry old wounds that keep honesty at arm's length, and private grievances start bleeding into the case. Objectivity slips, and the investigation drags a string of damaging mistakes behind it. Kirill Kyaro plays a man who can climb inside a criminal's head yet stays lost in his own.

The show runs two threads at once: the manhunt and the slow, prickly bond between two broken people, where therapy and detective work keep crossing. If you prefer psychological procedurals built on character rather than chases, this focus on the investigators' inner mess is the draw. Stream Teach Me to Live (2016) online on iFILM.
