Connections Edited into Zolotoy son User reviews 41 Review. Top review. A futurist masterpiece. A remarkable film from , of immense historical interest. See the turbulence of Russia as it was just a few years after the revolution and the subsequent war against the foreign-backed White Army.
But see it all in the context of a most amazing futurist film, at least the equal of the other two equivalent futurist greats from Germany and Britain - Metropolis and High Treason , respectively. Arguably it is the best of the three, with avant garde sets and costumes that could have come straight out of the Bauhaus' choreography workshop. The version shown on Australian TV had a presumably later added music score that was just so perfect and integrated to the film's plot and visuals that it could not possibly have been better had it been original.
It had a mesmerising robotic, minimalist, mechanical and repetitive character that was simply made for a futurist and surreal film like this. The cyrillic characters of the silent narration only add for us Westerners, at least to the mystery and surreality of the whole story, and one can only feel sorry for those who, after all this tour-de-force, feel shortchanged from an unfulfilled need for a more banal storyline.
Or aggrieved by the perception of the film as mere propaganda. There's always reruns of Rambo and The Green Berets for you, fellers! It's a pity most cinephiles are oblivious to the existence of this film, as wider availability and screening would ensure its fame as one of the greatest silent, futurist and early modern films.

Review by Sally Jane Black. A hokey, muddled story of romance, intrigue, and Martian uprising that is deeply marred by a lot of contrived narrative choices.
The inclusion of several subplots indeed, seemingly without a main plot doesn't actually add much worth adding. The confusing murder mystery--confusing because it assumes our identifying with petty jealousy? Which is not to say that they are terrible; just not very compelling. The sequences on Mars are rightly lauded, but to add to that conversation is pointless: they're magnificent sets and costumes. Influential, too. Love it. But like a guitar virtuoso whose talent means they just wank on the strings all the time, the director has spent his best….
I'm a sucker for early cinematic depictions of space travel and alien life, and the Mars sequences in this were certainly striking - expresionist and abstract. In terms of narrative, however, this is pretty tedious and unengaging. Science fiction, a genre that always gets to me.
Even at its most simple and typically written story of dreams, martians, invasions and all the things we are reminded of when we hear the words science fiction, the grandiosity of the sets and desire for greatness makes this gem from the soviet silent era a must for those who love the genre and everything it encompasses. This is super cool because this is one of the very first feature length films about space travel and the way space and aliens are visualized is in this unique and awesome Constructionist design style.
Unfortunately all of that cool stuff takes a backseat most of the film to post-war Russian politics so much so that this film was banned a few decades later in Russia. One of those films where there's so much interesting things about this film, but at the same time it's actually not that interesting of a watch story-wise.
Los is an engineer who dreams of shooting his wife dead, flying to Mars and making it with an exotic Martian bird called Aelita. In the mean time on Mars, Aelita dreams of being liberated from the tyranny of the "elders" and of kissing on the lips like the earthlings do.
OK, sure there is more to the story than that but I found it all a little bit dull. In its day it was a massive blockbuster and was very popular. And much like popular films today it was also critically derided and I can see why. Regardless, the acting and narrative is not always the most important part of a sci-fi film. Sometimes it…. Three-pronged attack on bourgeois tendencies that Moscow does not believe in: 1 Black-marketeering, subverting the egalitarian distribution of consumer goods.
Really, all that is way too much content for one single movie, and Protozoan doesn't develop any single thread enough to be compelling, or even succeed in holding it all together. Something that I don't think Soviet movies of the period addressed anywhere else.
