Чёрные волки (Season 1)

Black Wolves (2011) is a Russian crime drama series you can watch online on iFILM. Yaroslavl, the early 1950s. Former detective Pavel Khromov spent eight years in prison for a crime he never committed. The day he walks free, he learns his sister is dead — killed by the gang that has had the whole city scared for years. They leave a wolf's skull at every scene.

Played by Sergei Bezrukov, Khromov is chasing two things at once: the gang itself, and a chance to reclaim his reputation as an honest police captain. The series operates as Soviet noir — a grey provincial city, men trying to hold onto some principle in a world that already swallowed them whole. Watch Black Wolves online on iFILM.
