Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense and theatrical; themes: public demonstration, class contrast, revolutionary symbolism; style notes: high-contrast black-and-white, dramatic close-ups, static camera framing, use of shadows and strong facial expressions

A woman in a feathered hat and glasses gestures with a stick while smiling; a man in a sailor shirt stands on steps nearby. The scene includes other figures on stairs, suggesting a public gathering or protest.

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.
