Historian(2021)

Historian is a Russian crime drama series following Andrey Izvorin, a university history professor who moonlights as a comic artist under the pseudonym Hunter. Izvorin has developed an unconventional theory: unsolved crimes, particularly those where the wrong person was convicted, inevitably repeat themselves. Armed with his unique ability to visualize patterns through drawing and his deep historical knowledge, Izvorin partners with investigator Anna Rybakova to track down serial killers and unravel the most complex murder cases. The series blends procedural detective work with psychological insight, as Izvorin's creative mind and historical perspective become crucial tools in solving crimes that have stumped conventional law enforcement.
