Anna Karenina, a beautiful and intelligent woman, is trapped in a loveless marriage with Alexei Alexandrovich, a high-ranking government official. She finds herself drawn to Count Vronsky, a young and charismatic officer, and embarks on a passionate affair with him. This affair challenges the societal norms of the time and leads to Anna's social ostracization and the breakdown of her marriage.
