It is color film! No one could afford actual colors in soviet russia.

This was taken in the GDR not the USSR

I know. Still in the soviet zone and behind the iron curtain.

Ok, doesn’t make your statement accurate. This was Germany.

I would have thought the inaccurate part of my statement was that colors didn't exist under communism. Seemed clearly a joke to me.

GDR was not communist, It was socialist but ran by a one party state aka the communist party or the SED trying to achieve communism. I don't know much about color picture though
