As advertised, the films were all original, with French subtitles, and included "Vers le Pole Nord," "20me Fete du Travail en U. R. S. S," and "Le Depute de la Baltique" (Baltic Deputy) - the Russian drama, an early forerunner of Soviet historic realism, which encapsulated the 1917 Revolution through the eyes of botanist and physiologist Kliment Timiriazev. The movie was directed by Iosif Kheifits and Aleksandr Zarkhi and would win Grand prix des arts decoratifs a Paris. Ill.: 0. 2.
