Reviews in German: Noch sehr archaisch inszeniert, bestechen doch vor allem die Aussenaufnahmen in der nordischen Landschaft. Rückblickend gesehen klingt in dem Film die Vorahnung kommender Katastrophen des Zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts an, in dem aus friedlichen Nachbarn unerbitterliche Feinde werden. (lhg 2011)
Remarks and general Information in German: 2009 wurde eine unvollständige Version des Films in einer polnischen Kirche gefunden und 2011 durch das Schwedische Filminstitut restauriert. Es ist dies bislang der früheste erhaltene Film von Mauritz Stiller. (lhg 2011)
