1703

Any city at night becomes completely different from what it is during the day. And St. Petersburg is no exception. As you know, this is not only the northern capital of Russia but also the center of the country's cultural life. This is where interesting personalities come to create art, and sometimes break the law. And since there are much more crimes at night than during the day, the best of the best should patrol the city after sunset. Well, or those who fall out of favor.

The young police officer Vadik arrives in St. Petersburg to live with his girlfriend Masha and starts working in the police department, where the experienced investigator Gosha becomes his partner. At first, things don't go smoothly for them. Gosha considers Vadik a burden, but teamwork gradually makes the policemen, if not friends, then real partners for sure.

The first thing I liked about the show was its extraordinary atmosphere. It was shot in the streets of St. Petersburg, without decorations and pavilions. I really appreciate this, because the story literally captures you from the first episode and you you unknownly plunge headlong.

I'm looking forward to the next season. So far, 1703 is my favorite out of all recent shows. This is not only an fascinating detective story, but also a black comedy, as well as a colorful noir. So, feel free to watch. You will definitely enjoy it.
