The Last Night

The Last Night (1933) is a Soviet war drama you can watch online on iFILM. Set in Odessa during the Russian Civil War, it follows a Bolshevik underground cell resisting the foreign interventionist forces holding the city.

What sets it apart: children are part of the secret network, carrying leaflets and tracking patrols at the same risk as the adults. Ivan Koval-Samborsky, Darya Zerkalova and Stepan Shagaida lead the cast. Director Mikhail Kapchinsky had once managed the production of Battleship Potemkin, and this turned out to be his final fiction film — a tight sixty-one minutes shot at the turn of an era.
