Eisenstein in Guanajuato is a 2015 internationally co-produced drama film written and directed by Peter Greenaway. It was screened in the main competition section of the 65th Berlin International Film Festival.
Critic and author David Robinson praised Greenaway’s “…own post-modern pictorialism still as ingenious, flashy and painstakingly wrought in his seventies.” He also criticised the film heavily for its salaciousness and many historical inaccuracies, stating that of Eisenstein’s wife Pera Atasheva and his many friends, confidants and colleagues: “None of these would recognise the Eisenstein they knew in Greenaway’s Guanajuato.
