These included the 1938 adventure films Der Tiger von Eschnapur and The Indian Tomb by Richard Eichberg with Frits van Dongen , La Jana , Alexander Golling , Theo Lingen and Gisela Schlüter and in the same year the crime film Mordsache Holm by Erich Engels with Walter Steinbeck and Harald Paulsen and Hans Leibelt .
