The most famous Anastasia claimant would claim that she had feigned death amongst the bodies of her family members and servants, and that she was able to make her escape with the help of a compassionate guard who rescued her from amongst the corpses after noticing that she was still alive.
Anastasia's possible survival was one of the celebrated mysteries of the 20th century.
In this account, a young Anastasia, along with her grandmother, is guided safely out of the imperial palace by a kitchen boy, Dmitri, on the night of the October 25th Bolshevik Revolution, which is depicted in the film as having been instigated by Grigori Rasputin (the mad monk).

 Anastasia Romanov
A team led by Alec Knight, a senior scientist in the Stanford lab of anthropological sciences Assistant Professor Joanna Mountain, argues that previous DNA analyses of the purported Romanov remains — nine skeletons unearthed near Ekaterinburg in central Russia — are invalid.
Knight and his colleagues base their claim on molecular and forensic inconsistencies they see in the original genetic tests, as well as their independent DNA analysis of the preserved finger of the late Grand Duchess Elisabeth — sister of Tsarina Alexandra, one of the 1918 victims — which failed to match the tsarina’s own DNA.
In all, the researchers concluded that the bodies in the grave were those of the czar, his wife, three of their four daughters, and four other people — presumably the doctor and the three servants.
