Fragment of an Empire

Directed by Frederick Ermler, this last silent feature and fourth collaboration with actor Fiodor Nikitin follows an officer who spends ten years as a shell-shocked amnesiac after the Great War. A glimpse of a woman through a train window triggers his memory, and he journeys back to St. Petersburg, now Leningrad, where he is a man out of time trying to comprehend the revolutionized society.
