La Femme de nulle part
1922 Drama / Fantasy   

 
Review
Louis Delluc’s memorable experiment in impressionist cinema provided a fascinating study in time and memory.  It was to be a source of inspiration for successive filmmakers, not least of whom was Alain Resnais, who would use this film as a model for much of his work.
