Trivia

Apart from the usual degradation of a movie copy due to time and wear, the movie was edited (censored) shortly after the war to remove all traces of Igo Sym, a Nazi spy executed during the war by Polish resistance for treason. Surviving copy has barely a few seconds of his screen time, of what was a romance subplot with Raszewski and Magda Nieczaj. Surprisingly, other surviving movies with Sym were not edited.
