Riese
Sci-Fi Crime Thriller
6-Episode Premium Series
Based on the bestselling novel Project Riese by Remigiusz Mróz and adapted by Bartek Bartosik
A White Spider agent, part of a secret organization that monitors parallel worlds and prevents unauthorized crossings between timelines, uncovers a deadly conspiracy within his own ranks. Betrayed and stranded in an unfamiliar world alongside five strangers, he must find a way home while stopping the ruthless plan threatening the multiverse.
The mission becomes even more complicated when one of his companions turns out to be the exact double of his late wife, lost during a devastating global pandemic. Torn between duty and emotion, he must navigate suspicion, shifting alliances, and impossible choices.
On the surface, Project Riese is a high-stakes sci-fi crime thriller about saving the world and maintaining order in the multiverse. But at its heart, it is a deeply human story about grief, resilience, and the search for purpose after personal apocalypse — those moments when one’s world ends, and the question remains: how do you begin again?
