The strike

Strike like his later (and more famous)
Battleship Potemkin (also 1925) and (to an extent)
October (1928), takes place in the final days of the Tsarist era before the Bolshevik-led revolution and the establishment of a Communist Russia that Eisenstein did most of his life’s work in. Taking place in 1903, the film serves as a demonstration of proletarian sacrifice. However, Eisenstein’s work is far more than government-sponsored propaganda. It’s a beautiful work of art manifested through an expertly crafted narrative, a film that exhibits an incredible understanding of cinema’s unique visual language.” Landon Palmer
