Militant League for German Culture
Commissioned by Alfred Rosenberg's cultural organization Militant League for German Culture in 1934 under the working title "Deutscher Wald–Deutsches Schicksal" (German Forest–German Destiny), the feature-length movie premiered in Munich in 1936. Intended as a cinematic proof for the shared destiny of the German woods and the German people beyond the vicissitudes of history, it portrayed a perfect symbiosis of an eternal forest and a likewise eternal people firmly rooted in it between Neolithic and National Socialist times.
