A newly reconstructed version of the 1925 Soviet film Battleship Potemkin will premiere at Berlin Film Festival.
The film, by Sergei Eisenstein, dramatised a mutiny on the Russian ship showing how it inspired a failed 1905 uprising against the country's czars.
It now includes Russian graphics and words from revolutionary Leon Trotsky, which were censored in the 1920s.
The festival, which is showing the film next year, said no complete print of the original movie survived.
