background
It was produced by WW-Film Wauer & Co. Berlin, Lasky built the film buildings. The film was the first German in which shots were filmed at night in a street with lit street lamps and lit windows. This created an expressionist mood like years later in Karl Grune's film Die Strasse . The sequences were filmed slightly out of focus in order to conceal the poor quality of the house facades.
The film had three acts and was banned by the Berlin police in April 1916 (No. 39274). The first performance took place in June 1916 in Berlin in the Tauentzien Palace.
