Eisenstein’s 1925 film has earned immense critical acclaim and is considered
one of the greatest films ever made. About a 1905 naval mutiny it was
revolutionary in both form and content. Battleship Potemkin is renowned for
its dynamic composition and frame-perfect editing.

In this 2025 release the Pet Shop Boys score is performed with the Dresdner
Sinfoniker and orchestrated by Torsten Rasch. It blends electronic beats with
orchestral grandeur in an encompassing score that makes a powerful
cinematic experience.

Director Sergei M. Eisenstein. 72 minutes. Silent. Originally screened in 1925. This version with new accompanying soundtrack by the Pet Shop Boys. 2025
