“Love knows no bounds of age or status; it pierces with equal force the heart of a young woman and a world-weary soul.”
Tatyana falls hopelessly in love with Eugene Onegin, the enigmatic friend of Lensky, an aspiring poet besotted with her sister Olga. When Onegin coldly rejects Tatyana’s affections and Lensky’s relationship with Olga faces a devastating test, childhood bonds shatter with tragic consequences and the courses of four young lives are altered forever.
