Production

The film is a remake of the 1921 film of the same name directed by Jacques Feyder. After Feyder refused to create a sound remake of L'Atlantide, Pabst took to directing the film. Both Pabst and Feyder's film adaptations were shot in the Sahara Desert. To compete with American films, the film was shot in three languages: English, French and German.
