Bloodsuckers
A Marxist Vampire Comedy
Directed by Julian Radlmaier
Produced by faktura film, Ludwig Kameraverleih
A playful, surreal period comedy that blends Soviet political exile, summer romance, and vampire intrigue with deliberate anachronism and Marxist wit.
1928: Lyovuschka, a Soviet worker, is cast in the role of Trotsky for Eisenstein‘s latest film, but quickly finds his dreams of an actor‘s life shattered when Trotsky falls into Stalin‘s disfavor. Exiled from his homeland, he poses as a wealthy baron and finds himself stuck in a glamorous seaside resort in Germany awaiting a barge that will take him to Hollywood. A summer romance kicks off when he meets the eccentric factory owner Octavia Flambow-Jansen - it's just too bad there are vampires around.
