Belvedere Filmproduktion's reincarnation provides its history:Belvedere Film is the 1999 re-establishment of the film studio created in Vienna, Austria in 1946 by producer August Diglas, silent-film pioneer Emmerich Hanus, and one of the youngest of the few women in history to co-found a film studio, singer and pianist Elfi von Dassanowsky. This first new postwar studio in Central Europe created important feature comedies, dramas, musicals as well as future star careers between 1946 and 1951.
