- Film Provenance
- The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum purchased the film excerpts from the Bundesarchiv in Berlin, Germany in March 2007.
- Note
- The Bundesarchiv record quotes a letter dated March 7, 1944 from the head of the Zentralfilmgesellschaft Ost to the Reich Ministry for Propaganda that says that the creation of the film had cost 70,000 RM but due to military circumstances there was not much chance of showing it in Russian-speaking areas. However, the writer says, the film is quite well-suited for showing to state-owned units and workers from the east (Ostarbeiter).
