Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
This Danish farce recounts the amazing events surrounding Lenin's 1917 trip from Swiss exile, via private railroad car, to Russia and revolution. That trip, arranged by Germany's General Ludendorff, was but one of that country's surprising end-of-the-war stratagems. In the film, Lenin has to fend off a variety of female anarchists and spies in order to reach his destination.
