Tiefland (1954) ***

Legendary German film directed by Leni Riefenstahl. It had the longest production time of a film to date - 14 years (a record broken since only by Orson Welles' "The Other Side Of The Wind"). The filming started in Spain in 1940, continued in the Alps, and then in the Dolomites, as well as in the Babelsberg Studios in Berlin. Afterwards, the Barrandov Studios in Prague were used for more shooting that lasted until 1944. After the war, the footage was confiscated and kept by French authorities for several years, but eventually returned to her. After its final editing, the movie was released in 1954.
