Film de tono épico, que consta de dos partes y narra la caída del nazismo a manos del Ejército Rojo y la llegada y entrada triunfalista de Stalin -hecho simbólico, ya que no llegó a producirse en la realidad- en un Berlín donde el asedio de las hordas rojas puso fin a una contienda mundial instigada por los nazis de proporciones ,en todos los sentidos, espectaculares por su horror que dejó un rastro de decenas de millones de muertos. Momentos cumbres como la Conferencia de Yalta, o diversos momentos en el Reichstag con un Hitler genialmente caracterizado, o la visita de un obrero de la fundición a la residencia de Stalin en Moscú donde es convidado a comer junto a él, Kalinin, Molotov y Beria confieren a este film, todos los ingredientes para convertirse en una obra imprescindible.

The film’s content makes no concessions to the usual expectations of Soviet audiences of the 1930s. The cast of characters is extremely unlikely in almost every conventional respect. The action involves the household of the prominent Dr. Stepanov and his young wife, Masha, who share their large and richly adorned mansion with the parasitical Fedor Tsitronov, whose presence in the household is given only the most implausible of explanations. Equally implausible is the acquaintance of the family with the young and proud Grisha Fokin, whose leadership role in the Young Communist League is never clearly defined and who is never seen engaged in any work or professional activity.

Directed by Ivan Pyryev.

Directed by Hans Richter.

Reconstrucción de los acontecimientos ocurridos desde Febrero hasta Octubre de 1917. Una película en la que, siguiendo la filosofía comunista, no había personajes principales. La habilidad de Eisenstein y su experiencia se ve en los rápidos movimientos y en el ritmo en el montaje, así como en la construcción de intensas secuencias que no fueron bien entendidas por las tempranas generaciones rusas. El estreno se retrasó hasta 1928 debido a la presión de algunos grupos influyentes y, además, se cortaron algunas escenas. Aparecen en el filme muchos de los protagonistas de la revolución: los Guardias Rojos, los soldados y los marineros.
