Battleship Potemkin is consistently regarded as one of the greatest films of all time. Russian director Sergei Eisenstein made this film at the request of the Soviet regime to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the 1905 Revolution. What makes this film unforgettable are Eisenstein's experimental editing techniques and the remarkably tight, highly aesthetic cinematography.

In 2009, film music expert Frank Strobel curated a new soundtrack for Battleship Potemkin using various symphonies by Dmitri Shostakovich. Strobel's score follows a precedent set by Soviet musicologists in 1975 (to honour the film's 50th anniversary), also based on Shostakovich's music.
