Believed to have been destroyed by the Nazis, this masterpiece was re-discovered by the Pikecki Institute in the Bundesarchiv, Berlin, in 2019 and restored by Fixafilm, Warsaw at 2K. The Commission for Looted Art in Europe organised the restitution of the original 35mm film elements to the Themerson Estate who subsequently donated them to the BFI National Archive. A new soundtrack is composed by Lodewijk Muns for its restoration world premiere at the BFI London Film Festival 2021.
