With art direction by noted Soviet political caricaturist Boris Yefimov, PROPHETS AND LESSONS is a stylish variation on the usual Soviet propaganda themes of noble workers standing up to greedy capitalists. The film's song-like structure alternates between Western prophecies of the USSR's ruin and energetic live footage to the contrary. The Russian proletarian is shown to thrive in industry, battle and space exploration.
