Diary of a Lost Girl

Thymian Henning (Louise Brooks) is a young girl in her father's household who wants nothing more than to be left alone with her own thoughts. Then the clerk at his pharmacy rapes her, she becomes pregnant, and her family turns her out to fend for herself. Pabst, working in silent black and white, follows her through a hard world, and Thymian keeps meeting it with an open face.
