From case cover:
One of the greatest artistic and technical achievements of the German silent cinema, Fritz Lang's monumental DIE NIBELUNGEN is a passionate retelling of Nordic legend, invested with all the resources of the colossal Ufa Studio. Scripted by Lang's wife at the time, Thea von Harbou (METROPOLIS). SIEGFRIED establishes larger-than-life heroic characters who are defined by tests of valor and rigid codes of honor. In order to win the hand of Kriemhild (Margarete Schoen), Siegfried (Paul Richter) must win a bride for her brother, King Gunther (Theodor Loos).
