It appears this movie was never released in the U.S. We were unable to find a plot summary for this movie. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that the movie was made by husband and wife Jacob and Luise Fleck. Although completely forgotten today, except by major film buffs, the Flecks were major figures in the super early history of the cinema. Luise Fleck was born in Vienna in 1873, the daughter of Louis Veltee, who ran a panopticon (a semi-circular theater), and in 1910, she married Anton Kolm, and together with her brother and their cameraman, Jacob Fleck, they set up the first film production company in Austria. They made short documentaries, some directed by Louise, who is considered the second female film director (after French Alice Guy-Blache). During World War I, they made newsreels, but in the economic collapse in Austria after World War I, the company went bankrupt. They started a new company, but in 1922, Anton, Luise's husband, died, and she soon married Jacob Fleck. They worked for German production companies including UFA over the next decade, but when Hitler took power, they returned to Austria because Jacob Fleck was Jewish. However, in 1938, when the Nazis took control of Austria, Jacob Fleck was sent to the Dachau Concentration Camp. He was released in 1940, and the couple were exiled to Shanghai, where they helped make movies there. After the war, they returned to Austria, hoping to start a new film studio, and that did not happen, but they made a few movies. Luise died in 1950, and Jacob died in 1953.

Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare French poster from before World War II (we have never before auctioned it)! Virtually no French posters survive from the mid 1940s or earlier. There were many paper shortages in France during World War II, resulting in the destruction of almost all posters from before World War II, and also from during the war, and the first few years afterwards!
