The Policeman's Wife

2017 · 1 season

A slow-burning domestic drama that turns tense and uneasy as trust erodes, asking you to sit with the fallout of a marriage built on lies.

Overview: Lera Valetskaya is a happy housewife who has completely devoted herself to her children and her beloved husband Victor, a police major. But what if she has to find out that her husband is not at all who he pretends to be? Illegal affairs and a double life - a young operative Gleb Smyslov helps Lera to see the true face of a loved one. A long-term marriage collapses overnight. Now they have to decide whether they are ready to remain a family and whether they will be able to stand together against the gangster group — friends from Victor's past life.
