REIFENSTAHL

Using never-before-seen documents from Riefenstahl’s archive, this mesmerizing new documentary examines the rise of the Third Reich’s preeminent filmmaker (Triumph of the Will, Olympia) and her ideologically toxic cinematic legacy in today’s politically polarized world.

Manohla Dargis of The New York Times describes the film as: “Coolly damning… shrewdly edited. A welcome addition to the historically grounded rebukes to Riefenstahl and her apologists.”
