Anna Karenina

Following the death of his superior, Sergei Karenin takes control of the hospital during the war. While tending to an injured colonel, Sergei searches for answers about his mother Anna's sudden death.

After discovering the connection to his late mother, Sergei continues to listen to Colonel Vronsky's story. Anna returns home, the young Vronsky following behind in hope to win her over; only to realise she's devoted to her husband and family.

The general enters Vronsky's room and asks if he needs any help. Vronsky asks to be transported to Imachen, where his cousin is stationed.

Sitting in his room, Sergei Karenin and Vronsky reflect on Anna's strange desire to suffer. Karenin asks Vronsky if he really loved her, which he is unable to answer.

Vronsky, lost in thought, sits and listens to a soldier sing a song about fatal love while Sergei Karenin comes out of the operating theatre and looks in his direction.

Sergei Karenin reports to the sergeant-major for not having hung the Red Cross flag.
