Terra baixa (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈtɛrə ˈβaʃə], meaning in English Lowlands, also known as Martha of the Lowlands) is a Catalan-language play written by Àngel Guimerà in 1896. The drama is considered his most popular work, having become an international sensation after its premiere. ^[1]

It served as the basis for three operas, among them Tiefland, by Eugen d'Albert, ^[2] which in turn served as the basis for two films, including one by Leni Riefenstahl. Six other films based directly on the play were also made. ^{[3] [4] [5] [6] [7]}
