Today, on August 28 2009 the creative team of the Documentary and socio-political Direction REN-TV came to the Contemporary museum of calligraphy. The documentary film has been being shot for several months already. It reveals the historical theory Alexander I of Russia did not die in in 1825 in Taganrog on his voyage to the South of Russia. Many people, including some historians, supposed that a mysterious hermit Feodor Kuzmich (or Kozmich) who emerged in Siberia in 1836 and died in the vicinity of Tomsk in 1864 was in fact Alexander I under an assumed identity.
Regarding the colossal historical importance of this research the movie shooting is supported by the Institute of Russian history of RAS.
Representatives of the broadcasting company found a manuscript written by Fedor Kuzmich and called for the Contemporary museum of calligraphy. They wee interested in manuscript by Alexander I kept in the Museum. The handwritings of these two persons were examined by a famous graphologist Larisa Drygval – our partner. Speaking at the interview Larisa told that the two manuscripts – one of Alexander I and the other by Fedor Kuzmich – could be written by one hand.
It is planned to finish the documentary up to the end of 2009. The movie will be shown in the beginning of 2010 on REN TV or the First channel.
The copy of the manuscript written by Alexander I will be available to the audience at the II International exhibition of calligraphy from October 14 to November 14, 2009 in Moscow.
