An Old Man in a Worn-Out Overcoat

Original title: Старик в потёртой шинели

Directed by Vladilen Nedoluzhko

Lenin shows concern, spiritual generosity, justice and humanity towards the old man, a retired tsarist colonel. If the old man hadn't accidentally met with Lenin, who helped him arrange a pension, then he, the former soldier's son, who had become poor after the revolution, would have died.
