.
. The producer and director Lola Kreutzberg was born as Caroline Sophia Auguste Kreutzberg in Nürschan. She studied zoology and afterwards worked at the veterinary medical institute of the vetenary university in Munich. She already realised first movies from 1921 on behalf of the Filmhaus Deitz and she shot one animal movie each month. For this she installed an own studio at her home. Her protagonists were often native animals but she was also able to borrow some animals from the zoo. These first movies lacked some authenticity but this changed in later years. When she ventured extensive expeditions from 1927 which led her through several continents she banned her experiences with a movie camera. This local shot movies she marketed in Germany with her own production company and was very successful. Her audience did only know most of these countries by hearsay, now they could experience these countries on the big screen. To her numerous produced documentaries of the 20s belong „Der Ring der Bajadere“ (29), „Nuri, der Elefant“ (28), „Interessante Tiere“ (28), „Der Maharadschah“ (29), „Frühlingskinder“ (29), „Die Seerosen“ (29), „Der Rochen“ (29) and „Chamäleon“ (29).

With the rise of the National Socialists she didn't get the permission any more to go to expeditions in countries far away. *There are different information both to her year of birth (1887 or 1891) and her year of death (March 25, 1966 or January 3, 1972).
