During a smoldering summer on a Russian estate in the late 19th century, Vanya and his niece Sonya toil away, working. When the estate’s owner returns with a much younger wife and the intention to sell, an undercurrent of emotion is brought to the surface. Chekhov’s iconic meditation on wasted purpose and unrequited love.
