I can recommend Samsara [1] by Ron Fricke which is a collaboration of Barakat [2]
[1] https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0770802/ [2] https://m.imdb.com/title/tt11564468/
Pushpak (also named as Pushpaka Vimana) is a silent Indian film. Have watched it multiple times.
Baraka movie is a colorful vivid beautiful impactful movie without any narrative.
Babies movie (1 hour documentary) is about 4 newborns in different locations of the world, again colored, beautiful shots and without any narrative.
M by Fritz Lang, 1931. It does have a soundtrack but very minimal. Music is an essential part of this movie. Metropolis.
1 o’clock in the morning with Charlie Chaplin. Also his: the Gold Rush, the Kid, the Great Dictator.
Don't forget City Lights. His silent masterpiece inho.
Recommend Buster Keaton's "The General"! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_General_(1926_film)
Andrey Tarkovsky - Stalker (1979) - one of the best films ever. Aleksey German - Hard to Be a God (2013) - definitely silent but not exactly well detailed.
Both films were made according to brothers Strugatskys' novels.
Stalker is not a silent movie.
L'Argent by Marcel L'Herbier is rather splendid
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0019646/
Engelein (1914) with Asta Nielsen , Joyless Street (1925) , The Illusionist (2010) some music
Metropolis (1927). It was pretty ground breaking for the time.
The Cthulhu ones are pretty good.
