Résumés(1)
From an early novel by Anna Seghers. The feature-film debut by the German theatre director, Erwin Piscator, who emigrated to Moscow – and his only film. This lavish and expensive production was started by a German-Russian team, but filming had to stop and could only continue when a second attempt was made: this time with Soviet performers only. Stalin didn't like the film, so it was not shown much in the cinemas. Piscatorial later emigrated to Paris and the USA. He never possessed a copy of the film, however. (Berlinale)
