Discover the epic saga of love, marriage, heartbreak, and tragedy among the 19th-century aristocracy in Anna Karenina. Young, vivacious, and breathtakingly beautiful, Anna seems resigned to a passionless marriage of convenience.

Experience the unbridled passion and of Anna's star-crossed affair and its far-reaching effects on her family, friends, and social order. |
