New Documentary on Lenin Released on the Anniversary of the October Revolution
Lenin Documentary which was produced by the Red Creators Network was enriched by interviews featuring Nikos Seretakis —member of the International Relations Section of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), and Diego Torres —second secretary of the central committee of the Communist Party of Mexico (PCM). Special thanks were extended to the Communist Party of Turkey (TKP) as well as KKE and PCM during the closing credits
The documentary provides an overview of the birth of the Soviet Union, the world's first socialist state, focusing on Lenin, one of the principal architects of the revolution.
Following the events Lenin witnessed, analyzed, and intervened in from his childhood onward, the documentary takes viewers from a small fishing town in 19th-century Russia to various European cities where Russian emigrants and exiles continued their political struggle under difficult conditions.
The journey continues through the streets of Petrograd and Moscow, where the revolution unfolded; the congress halls that witnessed intense debates and political divisions; and the trenches of the First World War, where bloodshed, hunger, and anger accumulated.
The documentary also takes viewers to the Winter Palace, abandoned first by the Tsar and later by the bourgeois Provisional Government; the ranks of the Red Army, which defeated the counter-revolutionary White Army; the Kremlin; and finally, the village of Gorki, where Lenin spent his final days.
