Russian Revolution in Color. Part 2
Description
Shortly after the establishment of Bolshevik rule in Russia, brewing conflict threatened the party's leadership. This program depicts Lenin's response to those threats through ruthless campaigns against political rivals and foreign forces. Drawing on letters and personal accounts, the film also makes use of dramatic reconstructions and colorized archival footage, portraying the era as those at the vanguard of the revolution would have seen it. Viewers learn about the 1918 assassination attempt against Lenin and the anti-Bolshevik rebellions in Siberia, the Ukraine, Estonia, and the Crimea - as well as the Red Army's methods for crushing those uprisings and imposing a system that would split the world for the next 70 years.
