biography
Born in Russia, filmmaker Victor Trivas started out in the late '20s working as an art director for G.W. Pabst. He wrote and directed his first film, Niemandsland/Hell on Earth/No Man's Land, in 1931. Containing a potent plea for peace, the film was destroyed by the Nazis. In 1933, Trivas fled to France and eventually landed in Hollywood where he became a screenwriter. His original story for Orson Welles' The Stranger earned Trivas an Oscar.
