Win a luxury chocolate egg and a copy of the novel The Last Station!

Tolstoy, having rejected his title and embraced an ascetic life style, finds himself increasingly at odds with Sofya. As his devoted disciple Vladimir Chertkov urges him to sign a new will leaving the rights to his work to the Russian people rather than his family, the conflict between husband and wife grows to breaking point. The whole affair is witnessed by Tolstoy’s secretary, Valentin Bulgakov, whose burgeoning love for the beautiful Masha is set against the waning love of Tolstoy and Sofya.

Tolstoy, in his final days, makes a run for peace on a train with his physician, his daughter and Bulgakov. Sofya and Chertkov follow, but, too ill to continue, stops at the railway station at Astapovo. While hundreds camp outside awaiting hourly reports, it is here, at a remote railway junction, that Leo Tolstoy finds the peace he has been searching for.

The Last Station is a film about the difficulty of living with love and the impossibility of living without it.
