Lead actor Frits van Dongen (also known as Philip Dorn) was initially happy with the location shoots in Sumatra, Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia), as tiger hunting was a hobby of his. When the insurance company learned of this, a clause was added to his contract last minute, stating that Van Dongen was not allowed to go tiger hunting under any circumstances.
All that is left of this film is a 63-minute fragment in the archive of the Dutch Filmmuseum.
