Good Soviet Union era movies? (lemmygrad.ml)

Firstly. Hello! This is my first post after joining this instance.

I have recently gotten into PROPERLY studying Marxism and Communism. Unfortunately every time I try to watch something now I just see it as western capitalist propaganda. The new Tetris movie for instance shows Russia as grey and awful. I'm looking for something different.

Any good films made during the Soviet Union that you would recommend?

Kin-Dza-Dza uses a desolate desert planet as a satirical analogy to capitalism. It was released near the end of the Soviet Union's existence and is quite interesting to watch.
