Strike

Movie info

Synopsis

This brilliant and complex re-creation of the development of a 1912 factory strike in Tsarist Russia, and its savage destruction by agents provocateurs, police and mounted troops, was an ideal vehicle for the youthful Eisenstein to express his desire to reflect the dialectic of the Russian revolution in the most comprehensive of art forms.
