Who was Hitler (2017)

Directed by Hermann Pölking-Eiken

Overview

Hitler’s biography told like never before. Besides brief historical localizations by a narrator, only contemporaries and Hitler himself speak: no interviews, no reenactment, no illustrative graphics and no technical gadgets. The testimonies from diaries, letters, speeches and autobiographies are assembled with new, often unpublished archive material. Hitler’s life and work are thus reflected in a unique way in interaction with the image of the society in the years 1889 to 1945.
