Hi Faith,

I was wondering about this myself the other day. Tiefland means Lowland in
German and is the correct translation of Leni's film title in English.

It is about a baron that owns the water in a town full of gypsy's and
farmers and he's a tyrant. It is a beautiful film that Gobbels worked very
very hard to surpress. It took Leni 12 years to complete it. It is not
Nazi propoganda...

On Hello Earth - the entire Ninth Wave set of songs has "a little light"
running through them. The very last words on Hello Earth are english
"Good night little earth"......

Hope this helps.

Birdie
