Cine-Allianz

Cine-Allianz Tonfilm was a German film production company established in 1932 by Arnold Pressburger and Gregor Rabinovitch.

The company specialised in co-productions targeted at international markets, and enjoyed immediate success during the final year of the Weimar Republic.

They were forced into exile, while Cine-Allianz continued to produce films under the Nazi regime until its merger with UFA in 1942.

Rabinovitch went into exile in France where he set up a fresh production company also named Cine-Allianz which produced films such as I Was an Adventuress (1938) and Beating Heart (1940).

The 1951 West German film The Lost One was partly financed by money received as post-war compensation for the loss of Cine-Allianz.
