Secrets of Palace coup d'etat. Russia, 18th century. Film №4. Overthrow Goliath
Directed by Svetlana Druzhinina
And the invisible battle began! It was necessary to act swiftly. Menshikov tries to snatch Peter II from the clutches of the conspirators, but they arrange an escape for the emperor under the nose of the prince's agents. Menshikov is chasing the kidnappers! Remembering that Menshikov is terrible in anger — he chopped the heads of the archers with his own hands — the conspirators hurry Peter II to sign the papers prepared in advance and, seizing them, hide together with the tsar.
