Storm over Asia (1938 film)

Oswald had left Austria as it became an increasingly hostile working environment in the years leading up to Anschluss. It was his last film in Europe, before he moved to the United States and made three films in Hollywood. Conrad Veidt was similarly an exile from Germany, and had settled in Britain. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Claude Bouxin and Raymond Gabutti. ==Synopsis==

Reviewing the film Variety wrote that it was "a moderately good adventure drama" and predicted it would enjoy commercial success in France due to the popularity of Conrad Veidt. Going on to observe "It's almost a one-man film and Veidt makes all there is to be made out of a story that sometimes is fantastic enough to seem ludicrous". ==Cast==
