Bloody Mistress (Season 1)

Bloody Mistress (2018) is a Russian historical drama series you can watch online on iFILM. Set in 18th-century Russia, the series follows the life of Darya Saltykova — a noblewoman who became known as Saltychikha after torturing and killing dozens of her serfs over several years during the reign of Catherine the Great.

Widowed young and raised in a convent, Saltykova wielded the brutal authority that Russian law gave landowners without limit. Her case took six years to reach trial; her rank protected her long past the point when the evidence was clear. She spent the last three decades of her life in an underground cell. Yulia Snigir leads the cast in this unflinching account of class, cruelty, and unchecked power. Watch Bloody Mistress online on iFILM.
