Synopsis

In this telescoped version of the Dostoevsky novel the decline and fall of the Karamazov family include the failure of Aliocha to find happiness in religion, the emotional resentment of Dmitri at his father, Feodor's attempt to cheat him of his mothers inheritance, the tragic love of Ivan for Katerina, and of Katerina's equally futile passion for Dmitri, and the latter's unhappy infatuation for the harlot, Agrafena, whom the father seeks to buy.

Everybody is a little mad in the end.
