LENIN is a historical screenplay that follows the aging revolutionary Vladimir Lenin, as he goes from living in poverty/isolation to becoming one of the most iconic figures of the 20th century. The story focuses on Lenin's relationship with his wife, Nadya, who is dealing with being a secondary person in her husband's life in comparison to the Revolution of Russia and a mistress named Inessa Armand. Her struggle of trying to prove herself to him as a woman, a wife, and a revolutionary is one of the most important aspects of the script, while Lenin's struggle of gaining the power over Russia that he desires while also dealing with his political circle who has their own agenda mirror's Nadya's arc. The screenplay uses real excerpts from Lenin's speeches, letters, and conversations with others in order to bring a since of authenticity to the screenplay. Very few changes to the history have been made in order to tell a very honest, truthful, and in-depth look at Vladimir Lenin, the founder of the Soviet Union.
