Battleship Potemkin (1925) chronicles the tale of a naval vessel that has recently concluded its service in the Russo-Japanese War, where the crew is on the brink of rebellion due to harsh conditions and inadequate food supplies. The situation reaches a boiling point when the sailors are served meat contaminated with maggots, prompting a full-scale uprising. A sailor named Vakulinchuk (portrayed by Aleksandr Antonov) plays a pivotal role in preventing the officers from opening fire on the mutineers, leading to a unified revolt among the crew. News of the mutiny spreads to the city of Odessa, where the local population rallies in support, sending supplies and gathering to honor a fallen sailor. The scene escalates as the czar's forces arrive to disperse the crowd.
