Мать

or Mother in Russian is one of those old films that we were "forced" to watch in school. I like how the early Russian filmmakers pushed their political ideologies into the medium.

Mother (1926) dir. Vsevold Pudovkin

The Chinese makes everything. Even obscure and forgotten films (save for film professors and film students) like this. They are only selling it for $1 for such a rare film to find when the prices may be steep elsewhere.
