Battleship Potemkin

Sergei Eisenstein's 1925 masterpiece remains one of the most influential silent films of all time. Enraged with the deplorable conditions on board the armored cruiser Potemkin, the Odessa ship's loyal crew contemplates the unthinkable - mutiny.

Raising the red flag of revolution, the sailors' revolt becomes the rallying point for a Russian populace ground under the boot heels of the Czar.
