You should not encourage them.

That is what bourgeoisie used to say about communists.

Run on, my revolutionary brother.

They are nothing but vermin that carry disease.

People are not much different.

They too can be vermin.

Ignorance and corruption are the diseases they carry.

Is that supposed to be hopeful?

Revolution. That is the cure.

The old must make way for the new.

We are the new.

Father would be furious if he knew

I was talking to a revolutionist.

What father lets his daughter out

where dangerous revolutionists can influence them?

You'll catch your death with an open collar like that.

My father is the Rat Catcher of Petrograd.

He singlehandedly holds back the plague these vermin bring.

All done. Now, be off with you.

Uh, wait.

What's your name?

Red Soldier: Citizens of Petrograd,

unauthorized meetings and illegal trade are forbidden.

Disperse immediately!

Hey!

What the hell are you doing?

Run!

Come out, little flower.

Are you trying to get us killed?

How will you get your revolution

if you're so afraid of getting killed?

No! No!

Nina: Nina.

- What? - You asked for my name.

Nina.

Oh, ah...

I'm Anton.

Anton: We should hide here a while

and bask in the "spoils" of capitalism.

Nina! Where are you going?

Orphan Boy: Nina.

I'm sorry. It's me.

Are you okay?

I heard...my name.

- Nina! Wait! - Listen.

Tonight we vanquish our enemies.

Death to the Rat Catcher and all those he defends.

Do they speak of your father?

They mean to kill him.

All hail our liberator.

Rat people: Liberator.

Liberator. Liberator.

Liberator.

Liberator. Liberator.

Rise, Great Liberator.

Liberator. Liberator.

Liberator.

Let the blood of the old lead us into the new world.

Nina, come on.

We must go!

Nina, come on! Let's go!

What in Satan's name was that?

Those...those things.

What did they mean by their "Liberator"?

Boy, it is not safe here.

You are hurting me.

Let go!

Father. He will know what to do.

Come!

Nina: Father!

Father! Open the door!

Make haste, boy.

Your revolution is not welcome here.

He saved my life, Father.

Please!

Godforsaken imbeciles.

You were foolish, Nina.

Father, they are coming for you tonight.

Who?

Rat people.

Everywhere.

Ah, deception. Nothing more.

This breed is cunning.

These creatures are coming for you to kill you!

Do you hear me?

It is the same every year.

They come, I kill.

Always more to replace them.

Until they replace us.

But not while I'm alive.

Anton. Anton?

Bring him to me.

He may be too far gone.

If so, death with come as a kindness.

Anton?

Nina.

Follow the river to the edge of the city.

This is my fight.

If it is to be your fight,

then it is my fight, too.

Our fight.

I do not deserve my revolution if I'm afraid of getting killed.

They are here.

Behind me, both of you!

God damn demons!

Burn in Hell!

Into the tunnel now!

Let's go!

Little flower.

Nina! Ah!

Nina!

No!

Nina?

Nina? Where are you?

Nina?

Nina!

My beloved Anton.

Not you too.

You heard my father.

It is our turn now.

Rat people: Liberator. Liberator.

Liberator. Liberator.

Liberator.

The old must make way for the new!

For we are the new!

Anton! Do not leave me!

Anton!

You cannot escape your destiny!

Look at this one.

Of course, she was the liberator.

Another crazy junkie.

My sweet... liberator.

Sailor: I swear, half of the city is off their heads.
