Moment in Soviet Propaganda

This silent animation is a piece of early Soviet propaganda, intended to rally support for the Soviet alliance with the Chinese Communist in the lead up to the Chinese Revolution. It presents a series of vignettes about the abuses and oppression that the Chinese working class experience, particularly in rural areas.

The cut-out style animation is of a quality typical of the era, but the narrative and editing approach is more akin to the 'Soviet' style found in the work of Eisenstein or Vertov.

As a price of overt propaganda, this is effective, albeit very dated and somewhat heavy-handed. That said, Disney would begin making film like this during World War II, so perhaps this was ahead of its time. Clearly this is of historical / academic interest, more than being an enjoyable experience, but it's definitely worth seeing on that basis.
