In the hot summer, young man Tomasz Sonek is going to leave for the seasonal strawberry harvest in England, then stay there forever. The family does not approve of his intentions and, seeing off on the road, his parents have long and tedious ideological disputes with Tomasz, to which Tomasz does not care. Tonight he will have a fun farewell night with his Tanya and best friends, and tomorrow he will be gone.

The classic BBC dramatisation of Tolstoy's epic story of love and loss set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars.
