Lenin With Me is an intriguing peek into a family torn apart by political ideologies. The documentary captures the tension between Nina Yegorovna, a staunch Lenin supporter, and her husband, Evgeni Yegorovich, who can't stand the notion of Lenin and sides with the ruling party. The film's pacing is contemplative, allowing those long, awkward silences to hang in the air, mirroring the conflicts brewing within the family. There’s a rawness in the performances that feels almost too personal, almost invasive. It’s not flashy, but it grabs you with its stark honesty about how deeply politics can infiltrate our lives. The atmosphere is heavy with history, as their differing views reflect broader societal shifts, making it a distinctive study of domestic strife amidst ideological divides.
