The Communist (Russian: Коммунист, romanized: Kommunist) is a 1957 Soviet historical romance film directed by Yuli Raizman.[1] The Communist is one of the classic films of Soviet cinema. Praised for its realism and noted for its tinges of propaganda, the story is a vivid portrayal of a young man dedicated to communist ideals who struggles to complete a power plant despite supply shortages, a burgeoning revolution, and war profiteers. The film was innovative for its time; director Yuli Raizman managed to create an unflinching, complex image of the everyday struggles and triumphs of early communism.[2][3]
