Lenin, You Rascal, You (1972)
A comedy based on partially authentic events. The year is 1917, World War I is raging and dividing Germany between west and east. The Russian tsar is deposed. Lenin, who is in Zurich, wants to start a revolution – but how? An unbroken chain of accidents and assassination attempts ends in St. Petersburg, Lenin's target. This marks the beginning of 10 days that will shake the world.
