In the film, the legendary Saint Olaf for the Norwegians will be connected by a love triangle between Yaroslav the Wise and his wife Ingigerda. All because the prince's second wife is Irina (by baptism), and after the death of St. Anna of Novgorod was Olaf's bride, but in the end she married Yaroslav the Wise. The arrival of the Norwegian king in Novgorod was a test for the marriage of the Prince and Ingigerda.Christopher Hivew, the director of the film, said that he wants to see the city as King Olaf saw it. Therefore, the authors of the series in Novgorod visited the Trinity excavation, St. Sophia Cathedral and other historical sites.
