A film that had to travel firstSourced

A film about Poles and German rule
was shown abroad before Warsaw.

In 1908, producer Mordka Towbin made Pruska kultura, about conflicts between Poles and German authorities. Censorship appears to have kept it off Warsaw screens while it was shown abroad that year. It was screened in Warsaw only after World War I began.

The country's story
reached foreign screens first.
