STRIKE is Sergej Eisenstein's movie which he finished in the same year 1925 as "Battleship Potemkin". In this part the worker's revolt is brutally ended by the authorities, which Eisenstein puts next to explicit scenes from a slaughterhouse.

I understand this montage is supposed to be very powerful and symbolic and stuff.. But i think it could have been shot a little more artistically.. I found all the blood and torture and everything very overwhelming.. :(
