This powerful documentary brings to life the incredible journey of Prince Yaroslav the Wise, one of the most legendary rulers in the history of Ukraine. Born with a limp and ridiculed as a child, Yaroslav could never have imagined that he would one day unite the fractured lands of Kievan Rus and build a strong, medieval state. At his side was his formidable wife, Ingigerd, a Swedish princess whose wisdom and influence helped shape the future of the realm. Together, they launched a visionary matrimonial strategy, marrying their children into Europe’s most powerful dynasties. As a result, three of their daughters became queens of France, Norway, and Hungary—securing Kievan Rus a lasting legacy on the European stage.
Yaroslav the Wise is a gripping historical documentary about power, resilience, and the lasting impact of strategic leadership.
