The film explores the transformation of a red idea into a brown one. Our film is an attempt to show the psychology of communism as an idea whose blinding turns people into ruthless killers. The idea burns everything human in the Communists and for them there are no concrete living people around them, but only symbols of this idea - the classes of the proletariat and the bourgeoisie, the bloodsuckers of the landlords and the unfortunate peasants. One of the most prominent representatives of the idea of communism in the world was Leon Trotsky on whose birthday the October Revolution of 1917 took place in Russia. Don’t look at the film as just a memory of the past; it’s also a warning of what happened yesterday and may happen tomorrow. . Work on the film lasted three years of filming took place in Russia Mexico USA France Austria Turkey and Ukraine. close
