About one day in the life of V.I. Lenin - from the evening of December 31, 1917 until the late evening of January 1, 1918.
Lenin, together with N.K. Krupskaya, celebrates the New Year in the workers' club of the Vyborg side, receives foreign diplomats protesting against the arrest of the Romanian envoy, writes articles, meets with an old friend from emigration in Switzerland, Fritz Platten... On the way from the Vyborg side, the car of the chairman of the Council of People's Commissars is fired upon by conspirators... In short, it happens many big and small events, which fill this ordinary day in the life of the head of the Soviet state.
