Riefenstahl

In the organizer's words:

he Open Air Cinema Summer at the Waschhaus is presented by Thalia Programmkino & the Waschhaus Potsdam

Riefenstahl
Documentary, D, 2024, 115 min, FSK 12

In the presence of director Andres Veiel.

Andreas Veiel uses new material from the archives and Leni Riefenstahl's estate to examine the complex relationship between the filmmaker and director of Nazi propaganda, who was celebrated for her aesthetic abilities, and the Hitler regime. It oscillates between her glorified portrayal and incriminating evidence of her knowledge of the regime's atrocities. After the end of the war, Riefenstahl herself always denied that she had ever sympathized with the Nazis' misanthropic ideology. But after her death in 2003, her estate finally revealed a more differentiated picture of Riefenstahl. (Filmstars.de)
