Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: formal, disciplined; themes: military discipline, naval authority, collective order; style notes: static medium shots, high-contrast lighting, emphasis on uniformity and hierarchy

A naval officer descends into a hatch on a ship's deck while sailors salute and stand at attention. The scene shifts to show different groups of sailors in uniform lined up on deck.

The record

A Soviet work restored in the US in 1996 under the Uruguay Round Agreements Act for a term that ran to 1 January 2021. Public domain now; it was not between 1996 and 2020. The registry does not yet model restoration. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
