The Diplomatic Pouch (Sumka dipkuryera)
|
The Diplomatic Pouch (Sumka dipkuryera) is a Soviet 1927 B&W silent thriller movie directed by Aleksandr Dovzhenko. A Soviet diplomatic courier, heading from Britain to USSR, is attacked by agents of intelligence service in an attempt to get the papers that he carries. Mortally wounded courier hands the pouch to a railway trackman who found him. The trackman in turn gives the pouch to his son, a sailor on a ship that soon departs to Soviet Russia. The sailor and his comrades deliver the pouch despite all attempts of intelligence agents to seize the papers.
The first two parts of the film are lost.
