Children of No Importance (1926)
Directed by Gerhard Lamprecht
Overview
If watching a fellow facing indifference/rejection in the slums of Berlin didn’t convey enough pathos, Gerhard Lamprecht gathered much of the same crew from Die Verrufenen and turned his attention to the city’s population of unwanted children for the heart-tugging Die Unehelichen, released the following year. The trio of foster children at the center of Die Verrufenen are survivors who use their own resourcefulness to get by when the kids’ guardians and the system itself let them down.
