The script was initially sold to Germany and made as a German-language film. The Australian version was filmed in 1969 and subsequently sold to the US (National Education Television Network), Canada, and the UK (BBC), but wasn't shown in Australia until it was screened at the Gala Cinema in Sydney (also in 1969). It finally aired on ATN Sydney in 1972.
