Terra baixa

Terra baixa (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈtɛrə ˈβaʃə], meaning in English Lowlands, also known as Martha of the Lowlands) is a Catalan-language play written by Àngel Guimerà in 1896.

The drama is considered his most popular work, having become an international sensation after its premiere.

[1] It served as the basis for three operas, among them Tiefland, by Eugen d'Albert,[2] which in turn served as the basis for two films, including one by Leni Riefenstahl.

Six other films based directly on the play were also made.
