Release

The film premiered on 31 January 1947. In 1948 the film was released in the United States by the USSR distributor Artkino. This release is sometimes treated as a separate film, but is simply an English-subtitled version of the Czech original. The New York Times review of the film was negative, criticising it as "an unusual but decidedly confusing and unrewarding offering" and attacking in particular its use of disjointed flashback sequences.^[2]
