While she never actually joined the Nazi Party, as the creator of the single most effective propaganda film ever made, Triumph of the Will, Riefenstahl has spent much of her life trying to live down her association with the Third Reich. Her personal relationship with Hitler is still in question.

Feisty and charismatic at 91, Riefenstahl revisits the landmarks of her turbulent life -- from her beginnings as a daredevil actress in German "mountain films" to her direction of such stunning narratives as The Blue Light (1932) and Tiefland (1940s, released in 1954), to her infamous, brilliant documentaries Triumph of the Will (1935) and Olympia (1938), to her anthropological photographs of the now extinct Nuba tribes in Africa. The film brings the story of Riefenstahl right up to her current passion, scuba diving and shooting films of exotic aquatic life. All together, a riveting story that leaves the viewer in total awe of its controversial subject.

Critical Acclaim:

"A vital artistic event! One of the year's ten best." - Richard Corliss, Time

"Staggering. The most fascinating, weirdly engaging monster ever recorded on film." - Joan Juliet Buck

Whatever her political orientation she was remarkably skilled and used it well. Her life was a triumph or her will because she not only survived WWII but continued to be active until her 90s doing film.
