A raw and emotionally charged silent drama that follows two sisters struggling to survive in the working-class streets of Paris after a violent family tragedy. Told with minimal intertitles, the film relies on rapid montage, expressive close-ups and lyrical imagery to convey grief, desire and alienation. Directed by Dimitri Kirsanoff, Ménilmontant is a landmark of impressionist cinema, known for its intensity and striking visual style.
