Morgenrot is a 1933 German submarine film set during World War I.
Released three days after Adolf Hitler became Chancellor, it was the first film to have its screening in Nazi Germany. It became a symbol of the new times touted by the Nazi regime.[2] The title (literally "morning-red") is the German term for the reddish coloring of the eastern sky in advance of sunrise. Dawn was the U.S. title. It was filmed in Kiel, Schleswig-Holstein, the first German submarine movie made after World War I.
