An incredible epic about the life of Don Cossacs in a village in southern Russia between 1912 and 1922.  The leading character, Grigori Melekhov, is a rugged Cossack, who is torn between his first and true love Aksiniya, and his wife Natalya.  Grigori Melekhov's personal life is shown as a rough journey through the experience of World War One, the Russian Revolution, and the following Civil War.  The Cossacs are shown as traditional farmers and warriors, who are suffering through the most dramatic events in the history of Russia.

This two DVD set runs over 6 hours in length.  DVD-R is in Russian with switchable English subtitles.  Very good quality.
