Filmmaker Paul Ratner revealed his passion for studying old photographs of Indians during the filming of the film "Moses on Table Mountain", dedicated to the love story of a German Jew and an Indian woman.

"Many of the photos I found were hand-colored, because color films in the 30s were still the lot of experimenters," Ratner says. —Coloring black-and-white prints was an art in itself, and many of the colorized photos testify to a remarkable talent, with the help of which quite realistic images of people who lived more than a hundred years ago have reached us."
