Summary


The film is silent and contains no intertitles. It begins with a flurry of quick shots depicting the axe murder of the parents of the protagonists, two sisters.[2] As young women, they are portrayed by Nadia Sibirskaïa, Kirsanoff's first wife, and Yolande Beaulieu; their mutual love interest is played by Guy Belmont.[3]


Style


Like many of the early French avant-garde films, Menilmontant uses a mixture of styles and techniques.[4] The film also uses many techniques that were relatively new at the time, including double exposure.[5]


Reception


Film critic Pauline Kael wrote that Menilmontant was her favorite film of all time.[6]
