The daughter of Géza Polák, a wealthy Timisoara (Romania) industrialist, beautiful Agi Polly was a good dancer. At the end of World War II, Géza Polák decided to launch his young daughter on a movie career. With a specially tailored script, patterned on many a Deanna Durbin movie, three separately cast, but otherwise more or less identical, versions of the same movie were made: a Hungarian language version _Hazugság nélkül (1945)_ {qv) a Romanian version _Doua lumi si o dragoste_ (1947), and a German version co-starring Theo Lingen. A large number of Hungarian, Romanian and German actors in dire financial and/or political straits at war's end were then available, which explains the truly distinguished casts.
