This essay discusses the cinematic representation of Revolution in Sergei Eisenstein’s film Oktiabr’ / October, a film which had a decisive impact on the revolutionary development of film history and theory. I will explore how Revolution can be re-enacted and shown in the medium of cinema, and how this medium is capable of not only staging history in a pseudo-documentary form but also retain the dialectical gist of the philosophy behind the political revolution. The motifs I will draw upon for my analysis will be sculptures and monuments.
