Some would say Lenin was a violent terrorist, while others would argue he was a political genius. The liberal German newspaper Prager Tagblatt recognized him as one of the most influential figures of the 20th century, describing him as great, enigmatic and terrifying. This documentary looks at how a good boy from a good family started the revolution which destroyed the Russian Empire and founded a new world, the Soviet Union, in its place.
