A true, epic love story. Two radical American journalists witness and report on the Russian Revolution of 1917 - events that force them to choose between that cause and each other.


Written and Directed by Tom Mallaburn

1917. Louise Bryant and John “Jack” Reed are two radical American journalists, and lovers, desperate to make their mark on the literary world. Both travel to Russia to report on the revolution there and publish acclaimed books about that seismic event. But Jack’s commitment to the Communist cause draws him ever closer to the Russian political scene, away from his ideals and into the realities of political compromise.
