What happens

At the End of the World (French: Au bout du monde) is a 1934 French-German drama film directed by Henri Chomette and Gustav Ucicky and starring Pierre Blanchar, Käthe von Nagy and Charles Vanel. It was made at the Babelsberg Studios of UFA outside Berlin, as the French-language version of the film Refugees (1933). It was co-produced and distributed by L'Alliance Cinématographique Européenne, the French subsidiary of UFA. Käthe von Nagy appeared in both versions, but her male co-start and supporting casts were different. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
