Harika bir giris sekansi. Sessiz sinema donemi biraz daha uzun surse sinema cok farkli yerlerde olurdu belki.

This had a plot? :D

A visually rich film with a haunting soundtrack, it follows the tragic life of two sisters through a well edited series of silent scenes. It took me about half the movie to get a sense of what was going on because of the complete lack of intertitles, but once I did it was a very rich and moving experience.

Less montage / More coherence would have been better.

With its disturbing ambiance and timeless acting, the film immediately swallows the viewer in a void-like gloom. The opening murder sequence is still genuinely disturbing and far more horrifying than most attempts in the modern horror genre. For a film so short and so old, it's one of the most compelling works of cinema I've ever seen.

Rather dull, although it has a nice poetic sadness to it. Not as avant-garde as I expected.
