Tobis Film

From 1933 until 1938, Tobis controlled the dominant Austrian producer Sascha-Film which was known as Tobis-Sascha. From 1932, it also owned a majority share of one of the main Portuguese producers known as Tobis Portuguesa, a name which the company kept even after the German participation was terminated at the end of world War II. Tobis established a Paris subsidiary and produced French-language film at the Epinay Studios during the 1930s. Among the directors under contract to the company was René Clair who produced the films Under the Roofs of Paris and Le Million during the early sound era. ==Legacy==

One of the studio's employees Horst Wendlandt later (1971) founded a new distribution company which is also known as Tobis Entertainment. In 2016, the present-day Tobis became an investor in Globalgate Entertainment. ==Selected filmography==
