The Cigarette Girl Of Mosselprom (1924)

In stark contrast to most films made immediately after the Russian Revolution, this is an endearing rom-com filled with likeable characters and some self-effacing insights into the filmmaking process.

At the centre of it all is cigarette seller Zina (played by the future Cannes award-winning director Yuliya Solntseva) and the love tangles that surround her when she is talent-spotted to become an actress.

With an introduction from stand-up comedian and actor Lucy Porter and live piano accompaniment by John Sweeney.

RUNNING TIME APPROX 1 hrs 30 mins.
