🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a tense narrative, relying on the contrast between the treachery of technological warfare and the solidarity of the working class. It explores the betrayal of a scientific discovery turned into a weapon and the collective heroism against a new, invisible threat.

What lingers after viewing is a sense of anxious foresight, wrapped in the dynamic, almost documentary-like action of its era, where tactics and moral choice take precedence. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Semyon Timoshenko

Watch in the evening silence, appreciating the bold visual language of silent film and its propagandistic pathos.
