1. Man and Maggot: The Beginning of the Contradiction

2. Deck situation: The imaginary picture of the hanged person on the side of the ship, using mask processing. The scene of throwing the ship doctor into the sea is followed by the scene of maggots, the use of montage

3. The cry of the dead: for a spoonful of borscht, against the oppressor. All for One, One for All

The red flag is raised, which is the only color part of the whole film, and the film painting technique was used at that time.

4.

The clips of the shelling and the lion statue are also a kind of montage.

5. Final Victory: Gradually accelerated tempo of music and editing to create tension. Shoot? or...brothers?
