An Original Vintage German Film Program (measures 6" x 8 1/4" [15 x 21 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) Anschlag auf Baku (literally translates to "Attack on Baku"), the 1942 Fritz Kirchhoff German action thriller (set in 1919, it concerns attacks on oil fields in Baku, Azerbaijan, and heroic Germans help defend against the attacks, and it turns out the attacks were instigated by the British to help them gain control over that area) starring Boris Alekin, Gunther Ballier, Paul Bildt, Otto Braml, Joachim Brennecke, Rene Deltgen, and Fritz Draeger. It appears this movie was never released in the U.S. Note that this is a "conditional" movie. This refers to around 40 movies that were made in Germany between 1933 and 1945, during the time the Nazis were in power in Germany. These movies are considered to be propaganda movies, which glorify the Nazi regime and their ideals. Immediately after World War II, a list of over 100 movies that were made between 1933 and 1945 was created, and those movies were not allowed to be shown at any time in Germany or Austria. Over the next decade, around 60 of those movies were taken off the list so that they are allowed to be shown (but rarely are), and those movies are known as "forbidden movies", because even though they can now be shown, they could not be shown at all in the years right after World War II. The remaining 40 or so movies (including this one) are known as "conditional" movies, because they are still not allowed to be shown in Germany or Austria, even in the present day, with the sole exception being when they are shown in an educational context, like at a university, and a speaker talks before and after the movie. Important Added Info: Note that this is a "country of origin" item for this German movie! Also note that we have provided an image of all the pages of this 4-page program (we did this by opening it and laying it flat and photographing the front and back cover together, and the interior two pages together). This way, you see the entire program, and can well determine the exact condition of it from our super-sized image. But of course this means that the front cover appears in the top right of our image, but normally, the program would be folded down the center and you would view the cover by itself (and it will be sent folded as was originally intended). Condition: good. The program has two punch holes in the center of the left of the cover and in the corresponding area on the interior pages, because the program was stored in a 2-ring binder.
