Wisconsin women's club dreams turn red, as lecture snooze leads to comedic Soviet labor nightmare.

Crafted by women's club filmmaker Miriam Bennett, A Study in Reds (1932) uses humor to explore serious anxieties.

While audiences might expect a polished Hollywood production, A Study in Reds embraces its amateur roots. Imagine a world where a lecture on the "Soviet menace" transforms into a fantastical dream sequence – that's the delightful surprise A Study in Reds offers.
