Book Description
Leni Riefenstahl, aged 100 in 2002, achieved fame as a dancer, actress, photographer, and director, but her entire career is colored by her association with the Nazi party. This overt tension between the political meaning of her work for National Socialism and its essential aesthetic quality forms the basis of this compelling account. Appointed by Hitler, Leni Riefensthal directed the Nazi propaganda film Triumph des Willens along with her best-known work Olympia, a documentary of the 1936 Berlin Olympics. By 1939 Riefenstahl was arguably the most famous woman film director in the world, yet after World War II, she was never again accepted as a filmmaker. |
