Riefenstahl

An open, chilling, and almost frightening documentary about one of the most controversial figures of the 20th century - German film director Leni Riefenstahl, who became famous for her Nazi propaganda film Triumph of the Will. The entire film is based on documents from her estate, including private films, photographs, letters, and recordings that have not yet been made public. The film reveals fragments of her biography and places them in a broader historical context. How could Riefenstahl become a leading Reich filmmaker while persistently denying any close ties to Hitler and Goebbels?
