Time in the Sun

Second attempt to create a feature film out of the 200,000-plus feet of film which Soviet film-maker Sergei Eisenstein shot during 1931-32 in Mexico for American socialist author Upton Sinclair, his wife and a small company of investors.

The first attempt at editing the footage, in the USA, resulted in "Thunder Over Mexico", released in 1934.
