Background

When the Second World War broke out in 1939, J.C. Mol, founder of Multifilm Haarlem, could not return to the Netherlands as he was visiting the Dutch East Indies at the time. He therefore decided to set up a branch of his company, Multifilm-Batavia, in the Indies. At the time that the Germans occupied the Netherlands and the Dutch government in London went into exile, Multifilm Batavia became the center of Dutch film propaganda. With the Japanese invasion in 1942, the activities of Multifilm-Batavia came to an end. The Japanese took over the well-equipped studio and started producing their own propaganda to impose on the people of Indonesia, establishing the Indies branch of Nippon Eigasha.
