Synopsis: POTEMKIN evolved from a project that was meant to commemorate the 1905 Revolution. Eisenstein chose to focus solely on one incident -- the mutiny of a battleship crew -- producing, arguably, the most important film in the history of cinema. The legendary Odesa Steps sequence remains the epitome of a director's abiltiy to exemplify the horror of violence and aggression in a single cinematic moment.
In Russian with English subtitles.
