Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: solemn; themes: military discipline, maritime setting; style notes: static wide shot, high contrast black and white, formal composition

A group of sailors stands on the deck of a ship, with one figure at the bow. The ship is moving through water, creating a wake.

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.
