API doesn't return any backdrops

I'm trying to get the backdrops for the film "Shooting war" (5707) but the API returns an empty element for backdrops... any clue?
API Call to get backdrops:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/tt0298506/images?api_key=<valid_key>
Response:
{
"id": 41327,
"backdrops": [],
"posters": [
{
"aspect_ratio": 0.73,
"file_path": "/aCAg25GJ46o489DTzB6HfEefxj2.jpg",
"height": 907,
"iso_639_1": null,
"vote_average": 0.0,
"vote_count": 0,
"width": 666
}
]
}
Thanks in advance!

It looks like the backdrop was only added today, is that right? API responses are cached for unto 24 hours. You will have to wait for the cached items to expire.
Cheers.
