Viking. To See to Believe

The documentary showcases the dedication of a team of specialists who spent eight years creating a detailed representation of Kievan Rus. The filmmakers relied on various historical texts, including Icelandic sagas, Byzantine accounts, and ancient Russian chronicles, to ensure documentary accuracy in their storytelling.

Viewers will find a rich visual experience featuring five constructed cities, hand-sewn costumes, forged weapons, and a Viking ship, or drakkar, built according to historical designs. The use of complex computer graphics further enhances the immersive atmosphere, bringing the early Middle Ages to life for the audience.
