An important figure in post-revolutionary art circles, Kozintsev was one of several co-foundersincluding his future partner Leonid Traubergof the influential, experimental theater group, FEX (Factory of the Eccentric Actor).
A few years after its foundation in 1921 FEX turned its attention to filmmaking, bringing its eclectic, bombastic style to the screen with the medium-length The Adventures of Oktyabrina (1924).
Kozintsev and Trauberg began co-directing feature films later in the decade, reaching their peak with the hugely popular "Maxim" trilogy (The Youth of Maxim, 1935, The Return of Maxim, 1937, The Vyborg Side, 1938), an unromanticized portrait of the formation of a revolutionary.
