The Rescue:
March 1918, Tobolsk,Siberia. The deposed Romanov family ‐ Tsar Nicholas II,Tsari a Alexandra,and their five children ( Olga,Tatiana,Marie, Anastasia, and hemophiliac heir Alexei) endure bitter captivity as revolution destroys Russia. Guards grow hostile and rumors swirl of their transfer to a more dangerous location. When a mysterious note appears in Nicholas’s Bible promising rescue by two English-speaking girls, it seems impossible – but with their situation growing desperate, Nicholas makes an unthinkable choice: trust complete strangers.
Present day Montana teenager Lex, obsessed with Russian history since childhood, convinces her brilliant friend Lindsay ( who invented a working time travel device) to save the doomed family. In a heart stopping escape, seven prisoners of history step through a glowing portal into 2022 Montana, delivered to Lex’s aunt Jo’s ranch.
Arrival and adaptation:
They must pose as Ukrainian refugees named Romanova while adapting to smartphones, modern medicine, and democratic values. Nicholas discovers unexpected satisfaction in ranch work. The grand duchesses pursue education and careers — Marie enters nursing school while Olga & Tatiana start a successful sewing business. Most miraculously young Alexei begins receiving modern hemophilia treatments. For the first time in his life he can be an ordinary boy and dream of reaching adulthood instead facing certain early death.
