Lowlands (1954)

Original title: Tiefland Tiefland was mostly shot in 1940

This is the last full feature film of Leni Riefenstahl is based on "Marta of the Lowlands (Terra Baixa); A Play in Three Acts by Owen Wallace Gilpatrick (1915). The evil Don Sebastian, Marquès von Roccabruna wants it all including a Spanish Bettel dancer on the side.

It is not quite as popular as many of the other Leni Riefenstahl films such as "The Blue Light" (1932). But it can hold its own. You will get intrigued by the story. Of course, you may feel a little embarrassed for Leni playing an exotic dancer and the knife fight scene.

The English subtitles do not exactly match, so be sure to listen to the soundtrack.

Leni Riefenstahl claimed throughout her life that all the gypsies used in the film as extras were treated very well and that "all of them were seen after the war", safe and sound. It was not until the late 70's and 80's that documents were found proving that she personally went and selected the gypsy extras in the Maxglan-Leopoldskron camp (near Salzburg) for filming in the Dolomites in 1940, and in 1942, in the Marzahn camp for the studio scenes, filmed in Babelsberg. These extras are seen, for instance, in the dancing sequence in the tavern, and when gypsy children run along Pedro when he comes down from the mountain to marry Martha. It is also now proven that most of the Gypsy extras perished in the Auschwitz extermination camp.
