Favorsky (2005) is a Russian detective drama series you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Dmitry Svetozarov. Baltic merchant fleet first mate Alexander Bogdanov is docking in Stockholm after a long voyage when a stranger approaches him on the quay.
An elderly Swedish woman needs a favour: take a copy of a Karlsson-on-the-Roof book — in English — back to a friend in Moscow. A simple errand, or so it seems. By the time Bogdanov reaches home, he understands the request was anything but innocent, and a man trained to stay calm in a storm finds himself caught in something that has been prepared for him with some care. Starring Ilya Shakunov, Alexander Lykov, Nodar Mgaloblishvili, and Valery Degtyar.
Svetozarov tightens the net gradually — no car chases, just a quietly closing circle of circumstances. That restraint is what makes the show land. Stream Favorsky online on iFILM.
