Blaue Pferde auf rotem Gras 1980

Directed by Christoph Schroth

In 1920 Moscow, a wounded Red Guard paints “Blue Horses on Red Grass” to symbolize hope he’ll never see. He presents it to a gravely ill Lenin amid famine, inspiring Lenin to reaffirm his legacy and resolve as he leads Bolsheviks in rationing scarce food for the city’s survival.
