Synopsis:

The incredible search for Russia's imperial bloodline. In July 1918 the last Russian Tsar, Nicholas II, was murdered at the hands of the Bolsheviks. At the same time, in the same room, his wife, son and four daughters were also killed by the Tsar's political enemies. Ever since that day there have been ongoing disputes about their uncovered remains. Then, almost 90 years later in 2007, the remains of the Tsar's children were discovered, flaming the debates as to the whereabouts of the Tsar and his wife. Produced by Russian Television, this exclusive programme unravels the chain of events surrounding the complicated search for the imperial family using advanced science and technology.

Discovery Channel documentary that explores the circumstances surrounding the assassination of Tsar Nicholas II in 1918 and the search for his remains. Nicholas II, his wife, son and four daughters were all murdered during the Bolshevik Revolution. However, while the remains of the children were discovered in 2007, the bodies of Nicholas II and his wife have yet to be uncovered. The documentary examines the contribution advances in science and technology have made to the search and the significance of the enterprise to modern Russia.
