Strike
The film depicts a hit in 1903 by the workers of their succeeding suppression, and a factory in pre-revolutionary Russia. The film is most famous for a string near the ending in which the violent setting from this attack is cross cut with footage of cows being slaughtered, although there are many other points from the movie at which animals act as metaphors for the conditions of assorted individuals. Another theme in the film will be collectivism in resistance to individualism which was regarded as a convention of western picture.
