The Sixth of July (Shestoe iyulya) is a Soviet 1968 B&W historical movie directed by Yuli Karasik. It depicts the events of Left Socialist Revolutionary Party (Left SR) uprising against the Bolsheviks in July 1918. The immediate cause of the conflict between Bolsheviks and Left SRs, who were previously formed coalition government, was the disagreement about the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk that was signed between Soviet Russia and the Central Powers. The uprising started on July 6 with the assassination of the German envoy Count Mirbach by two members of Left SR party. The uprising lasted for only one day and was crushed in the morning of July 7 by the troops, faithful to Bolsheviks.
