About the movie:

For this movie night, we're going way back in cinema history. To the dark, but vibrant times of the Soviet October Revolution or Ten Days That Shook the World as an American journalist described it. This movie is more than just a history lesson though. It's an insight to the birth and dynamic development of cinema! This movie is one of the masterpieces of one of the first master pioneers of world cinema. For the ones unfamiliar with cinema history; the Soviet directors of the twenties and thirties of the last century really revolutionized cinema. They did this by experimenting with and especially emphasizing and developing the role of editing in cinema. In fact, the director of this movie also became a professor on the field of movie editing and wrote one of the leading books on this subject, which is still, almost a century later, revered by directors and cinema lovers around the world.

Anyway, regardless of its political message, this movie should be seen because of its artistic value and insight into a timeframe that was so influential for Russia and for the whole world. So leave any prejudices behind and feel the rage and fury of the worker class...death to the bourgeoisie!
