The film is based on the stage play "Axel an der Himmelstür", that was a great success for Zarah Leander and established her career as a leading actress in 1936. When Zarah Leander signed a film contract with UFA in Babelsberg in 1937, Kirsten Heiberg was invited to replace Leander on stage but declined. In 1943 Zarah Leander originally was the first choice to recreate her role on the silver screen but she left Germany in the midst of 1943 to return to her native Sweden. Thus Kirsten Heiberg could return to the screen after a film interdiction of two years. Her husband Franz Grothe wrote all new songs for her and the film was a huge success. It is totally non-political and still one of the best German efforts to find its own kind of sophisticated comedy.
