Germany's Finance Ministry had originally denied the producers the right to film at Bendlerblock, explaining that the site should be treated as a "place of remembrance and mourning" which would "lose dignity if we were to exploit it as a film set".
Njemačko Ministarstvo obrane isprva je odbilo producentima dati pravo na snimanje u Bendlerblocku, objasnivši kako se mjesto mora smatrati "mjestom sjećanja i oplakivanja" koje bi "izgubilo dignitet ako se iskoristi kao filmski set".
