In his riveting chronicle of the life and reign of Tsar Nicholas II (reigned1894-1917), Massie’s emphasis is on the imperial couple and their family and the high drama surrounding their son and heir, Tsarevich Alexis, whose hemophilia was a constant cause of great anxiety. The music video follows the song lyrics in a “backward movement”, starting with the events relating to the tragic murder, moving back to the captivity period, and ending with the happy images of the family at their merriest days. It says about the ending days of Romanovs, discusses the devastating civil war and the fall of the empire.
