Overview
Unfolding over two days in 1924, the film depicts the dying Lenin, world revolutionary and father of the USSR, now powerless and isolated at his Gorki estate. Cared for by his wife, Nadezhda Krupskaia, sister Maniasha, his German doctor and several attendants, Lenin raves about his diminishing faculties, discusses the deaths of great figures (including Marx), rides a car to a picnic in a meadow and ponders his historic legacy.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A hushed, intimate portrait of a revolutionary at life's end, stripped of authority and grappling with mortality. Watching Lenin fade over two days feels like witnessing a historical figure become suddenly, painfully human.
