Spanning decades of Russian upheaval from 1903 through the Bolshevik Revolution and its aftermath, physician and poet Yuri Zhivago is torn between his devotion to his wife Tonya and his passionate love for the beautiful Lara. As revolution, civil war, and political oppression devastate their world, Yuri struggles to hold onto his humanity and his art while being swept along by the forces of history that separate him from everyone he loves.
