Do you feel lucky, Silent Londoners? I hope so, because I am giving away tickets to watch a stone-cold Soviet classic at the marvellous east London venue Hackney Attic. In June, Filmphonics is screening Sergei Eisenstein’s stirring Battleship Potemkin, with live music from Costas Fotopoulos.

Don’t tell me you haven’t seen Potemkin: it’s a landmark of  cinema and  its violent, vital film-making is utterly unforgettable. Battleship Potemkin is a masterpiece of Eisenstein’s celebrated montage techniques, heart-in-mouth revolutionary propaganda, and in many ways a template for the best in modern action-movie spectacle. So get on it.

To win a pair of tickets to see Battleship Potemkin, simply email the answer to this simple question to silentlondontickets@gmail.com with Potemkin in the subject header by noon on Friday 14 June 2013.

Battleship Potemkin screens at Hackney Attic with live accompaniment by Costas Fotopoulos on Sunday 16 June at 7.30pm. Tickets start at £7  for members. Click here to book and for more information.
