Evil(2024)

Evil is a Soviet-era crime series set in 1979 that follows journalist Yeltsov as he investigates two seemingly unrelated crimes: a deadly robbery at a Moscow ballerina's apartment and a daring bank heist in Yerevan. When investigator Anokhin recruits his friend Yeltsov to help solve the cases, the journalist uncovers a sprawling conspiracy that reaches into the highest levels of power. As he digs deeper, the separate threads of violence and corruption begin to weave together, revealing a dangerous network that threatens far more than simple criminal justice. The series balances procedural detective work with political intrigue, capturing the tension and moral complexity of investigating crime under an authoritarian regime where the truth itself becomes a weapon.
