Synopsis: A little girl makes a living by selling matches on the street; on Christmas night, the snow is falling and no one will buy her matches; cold and hungry, she decides to light her matches to warm herself; as each match is lit, she mentally pictures images of happiness and comfort.
Appraisal: Remarkable for its time, and even more so for its depiction of dream as cinema. Based on a 1848 short story by Hans Christian Andersen.
