Director
The propaganda documentary about the readiness of the Red Army to repulse any enemy is based on documentary shots taken during the real maneuvers of the Red Army. Armadas of tanks, immense columns of infantry, dozens of fighters and bombers, thousands of cavalry, legendary divisions of the Civil War. The film glorifies Soviet military power and shows the Soviet people what the war will be like when the imperialists attack the USSR — quick, victorious, almost bloodless.
Director
A film report produced on Aleksandr Medvedkin's Kino-train, addressing the problems of living conditions in the October Mine in the Krivoi Rog region - a mine that, according to Medvedkin, was so improved by the experience of the kino-train that it subsequently became the most successful mine in the region.
Director
The only surviving film from the first trip of Aleksandr Medvedkin's Kinopoezd (film train). A 'film-newspaper' demonstrating one key aspect of the train's work: the desire to encourage shame. In it, poor workers are named and shamed outright and local leaders are filmed at a lengthy and ill-focused meeting, ignoring the urgent demands of the work that surround them.
Director
A short film by Aleksandr Medvedkin.
Director
A celebration of the signal industrial project of the first Five-Year Plan, featuring everyone from old man Kalinin to French author Henri Barbusse. A Kinopoezd – Cinetrain production.
