At the heart of this film is the question of whether Leni Riefenstahl was a Nazi, as her detractors claim, or whether she was the victim of society -- a naive, young woman who made Triumph des Willens on assignment, and simply did a very good job. This film does not judge, and Riefenstahl (a fiesty 90 during production) is genuine in her protest. Or has the passage of 50-plus years simply rewritten history in her mind? Viewers must judge for themselves.

Originally produced as a German documentary in 1993.

Camera, Walter A. Franke, Michel Baudour, Jürgen Martin ... [et al.] ; editors, Beate Köster, Vera Dubsikova ; music, Ulrich Bassenge, Wolfgang Neumann.
