This riveting documentary explores the infamous German filmmaker’s controversial artistic legacy and her complicity in glorifying the Nazi regime through her formidable talent. The film explores the line between art and propaganda. It reveals the seductive power of Nazi ideology, offering a disturbing and highly relevant portrait of profound self-delusion and evasion of personal responsibility. Director Andres Veiel obtained access to Leni Riefenstahl's personal archives to assemble a damning profile of the unrepentant director, one that challenges her attempts to distance herself from Hitler. This psychological portrait of the infamous director of “Olympia” and “Triumph of the Will” is the chilling story of an artist who made a pact with the devil.
