A copy of the film was found in Massachusetts by a film collector in 1998. The print was labeled "The Fall of Jerusalem," but had no credits other than the name of a distributor. There were only a few passing references of the film in the US, and no mention of it in European records. Nobody knew where it came from or who made it. In 2004, after years of research and detective work a lip-reading expert, and positive Id's of actors in the film led to the discovery that it was a German film called "Jeremias."
