0:39 Waffles was a landowner nearby who, when his luck went bad, was taken in by Vanya’s family. None of the women drink.

That was some outline of story. Thanks

Thank you.
I can now 'waffle' on about Vanja at
dinner parties and declare
'spoiler alert' when speaking about certain plot points and come across all frickin' academic and s**t! 😅

There's no plot they just needed to get a job or a hobby

If this is not satire, i don't know why this video even exist. Holy shit.

Why oversimplify everything? Love Anton Chekhov. I read all his novels. I’m going to Uncle Vanya performance soon.

I stopped feeling sorry for any of them early on. They all live lives of ''quiet desperation'' and I couldn't relate.

Ok, so I didn't miss anything when I saw it. Nothing was accomplished.

Vanya is a bummer? I beg your pardon. How very rude indeed. Seriously the reductive inclinations of an American student are unbearable.
