Idiot (Part 03 and 04)

Join the journey of the extraordinary Prince Myshkin, a child-adult who has spent years confined in a Swiss sanatorium battling severe epilepsy. Upon his return to Russia, he seeks to claim his inheritance and find his place in a society that is anything but welcoming. As he navigates the bustling streets of St Petersburg, this innocent soul faces a mix of compassion and cruelty, drawing the attention of ruthless fortune-seekers. His clumsy yet sincere attempts to connect elicit a range of reactions—from protective instincts to scorn. The story begins with a memorable train journey where he meets the enigmatic Rogozhin, a wealthy merchants son, whose obsession with the beautiful yet troubled Nastasia Filippovna spirals into a tragic dance of desire and destruction.
