Docu on Arte:

Der Nansen-Pass / The Nansen Pass

Translation from the Arte topic page:
"It is thanks to the Norwegian diplomat Fridtjof Nansen that the so-called Nansen Passport was introduced in 1922, 30 years before the Geneva Convention. Until 1945, it provided protection for thousands of stateless persons who had lost their citizenship as a result of the upheavals of the First World War, the Armenian genocide and the Russian Revolution..."

Complex topic, definitely worth seeing, I knew absolutely nothing about this topic.
