Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: urgent; themes: communication, naval command, rebellion; style notes: high-contrast black and white, static shots, intertitles used for commands

Two ships are shown at sea, with one sending a signal to join. A sailor is visible on deck, and on-screen text repeats the command to join. No names are spoken or visible.

“Oh, my God.” 68:56 · “I'm not sure what you're doing.” 68:58 automatic transcript, may be wrong

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.
