Riefenstahl
A captivating insight into the private estate of Leni Riefenstahl, who became world-famous with her Nazi propaganda film Triumph of the Will, but kept denying any closer ties to the regime.
Director: Andres Veiel
115 mins / 2024 / Germany, with subtitles
This is the kind of doc that really gets people talking. It’s all about Leni Riefenstahl, one of the most controversial filmmakers of all time – massive talent, deeply tied to the Nazi machine, and a total enigma. It’s uncomfortable, fascinating, seriously cinematic.
Reifenstahl is the perfect mix of film history, moral grey zones, and big visual flair. Super engaging, a bit provocative, and the kind of thing you will want to unpack over a drink after the credits roll.
