DESCRIPTION:U.S. Premiere of the Digital Restoration&nbsp\; \n\n	Introduced
  by film programmer Dorota Lech and presented with live piano accompanimen
 t by Makia Matsumura\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n		\n		\n			Dir. Dziga Vertov. 191
 8. 119 mins. DCP. Made for the first anniversary of the Great October Soci
 alist Revolution and released in Soviet Russia on November 7\, 1918. Anniv
 ersary of the Revolution was the first feature-length documentary directed
  by the legendary pioneering filmmaker Dziga Vertov. The film portrays the
  developments surrounding the period from February 1917 (the bourgeois Feb
 ruary Revolution) to the end of the summer of 1918 (the beginning of the C
 ivil War). Filmed by a multitude of cameramen and made largely from newsre
 els\, it was long believed lost or destroyed. With the aid of a full list 
 of the film's intertitles discovered in the Russian State Archive of Liter
 ature and Art by Svetlana Ishevskaya\, film historian Nikolai Izvolov reco
 nstructed the film to a 98% accuracy to the original version by piecing to
 gether the fragments. According to Izvolov\, Anniversary of the Revolution
  'was a unique experiment\, which involved the editing of a huge number of
  archival newsreels—unprecedented not only for Soviet Russia\, but also th
 e rest of the world… Film historians have guessed before that this film ha
 d to be of great importance for the development and formation of documenta
 ry cinema. But only now [can] we really see its significance.' \n			\n
