The film documents the famous Russian Avant-garde artists that flourished after the October Revolution, only to be later suppressed by Joseph Stalin's regime. The documentary was filmed on location in London, Saint Petersburg and Moscow, with access to The Tretyakov Gallery, The Russian Museum, The Hermitage Museum and in co-operation with The Royal Academy of Arts, London.

Revolution: New Art for a New World was aired on BBC Four in October 2017 as part of the BBC's Russian Season[3] to mark the centenary of the Russian Revolution.
