Goebbels and the Führer
Directed by Joachim Lang
Produced by Zeitsprung Pictures, SWR
A dark, intellectually demanding historical drama that examines propaganda, complicity, and the final acts of a regime collapsing under the weight of its own atrocities.
As Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels creates films and pictures used to prepare the Germans for Total War and the Holocaust. When the war is lost, he conceives his last staging, the most radical propaganda act still possible to him.
