An Unprecedented Campaign backdrop

An Unprecedented Campaign 1931 Directed by Mikhail Kaufman Небувалий похід

Made during the rapid industrialisation and collectivisation of Stalin’s Five-Year Plan. Kaufman countered the poverty of the villages with the geometrical rhythm of mechanised factories; militarisation is shown as the next step of the ‘unprecedented campaign’. "The proletariat, having become master of one sixth of the globe, frees the rural working people from the kulak oppression… THE PROLETARIAT …engages the peasantry in a joint campaign for Socialism. This is what the film speaks about".
