Description
Riefenstahl was a passionate young director who caved to the pressure to serve an all-powerful Fuhrer, so focused on reinventing the cinema that she didn't recognize the goals of the Third Reich until too late. This book introduces this charismatic and adventurous woman who lived to 101, while also taking on the myths surrounding her and her works.
