Dynasty
When one of the biggest business magnates in Serbia, Branko Kadic, decides to marry his secretary Kristina, he will start an avalanche of events that will throw the Kadic family into a whirlpool of family intrigues, love affairs, and business turbulence with Branko's biggest rival in business, Vojin Konstantinovic. Branko is not doing very well in family relations: he has no ear for the bisexuality of his son Stefan, as well as for his daughter Anastasia's ambition to realize herself in the business world. His new wife Kristina, who is gradually discovering this completely new world for her, strives to adapt to the family and keep Branko's affection. She is hindered in that by her previous affairs and the return of Branko's ex-wife Alexis, so the relationship between Branko and her is constantly changing.
