War and Peace background

War and Peace

In the face of Napoleon's advancing army, Russia's elite must adapt to the unpredictable nature of war and confront the risk of their opulent way of life being upended.

Based on the book by Lev Tolstoy, this eight-hour epic weaves together two complex storylines. One follows the tumultuous love story of Countess Natasha Rostova and Count Pierre Bezukhov, who is trapped in an unhappy marriage. The other storyline chronicles the "Great Patriotic War" of 1812, as Russia unites against Napoleon's invading armies.
