The film tells a unique story of two major figures who made the Great October possible: Vladimir Lenin and Alexander Parvus. While the international audience certainly knows the first, the second was equally, if not more, important. Alexander Parvus found money to finance the Revolution. He brought Lenin to Russia. He skillfully played people and circumstances to get what he wanted. And at the end, his manic ambitions, talents, and greed led to one of the major political cataclysms of the XXth century.
