	Triumph des Willens – Triumph of the Will Triumph des Willens / Triumph of the Will / Triumph of the Will (higher quality) Triumph of the Will is a propaganda film made by Leni Riefenstahl. It chronicles the 1934 Nazi Party Congress in Nuremberg. The film contains excerpts from speeches given by various Nazi leaders at the Congress, including portions of speeches by Adolf Hitler, interspersed with footage of massed party members. Hitler commissioned the film and served as an unofficial executive producer; his name appears in the opening titles. The overriding theme of the film is the return of Germany as a great power, with Hitler as the True German Leader who will bring glory to the nation. (more…)
	Tag der Freiheit: Unsere Wehrmacht – Day of Freedom: Our Armed Forces Tag der Freiheit: Unsere Wehrmacht Day of Freedom: Our Armed Forces is the third documentary directed by Leni Riefenstahl. It recounts the Seventh Party Rally of the Nazi Party at Nuremberg and focuses on the German army. Tag der Freiheit was considered lost at the end of World War II, but an incomplete print of the film was discovered in the 1970s—the extant footage reveals Riefenstahl mainly reprising the approach she used in Triumph of the Will, though certain more expressionistic sequences clearly presage the more audacious style she would adopt for Olympia.

	Festliche Nürnberg – Nuremberg Festival Festliche Nürnberg Festliches Nürnberg is a short 1937 propaganda film chronicling the Nazi Party rallies in Nuremberg in 1936 and 1937. The film was directed by Hans Weidemann The film runs for only 21 minutes, containing footage of the 8th and 9th Nuremberg Rallies. Particularly notable scenes of both the rally and the film are images of Albert Speer’s lighting techniques during the 9th Nuremberg rally on September 10 1937, in which he positioned 134 spotlights circling the Zeppelin field on which the rally was taking place. The beams of these spotlights converged at 20,000 feet, creating what became known as the “Cathedral of Light”. (more…)
	S. A. Mann Brand – The S. A. Man S. A. Mann Brand S.A. Mann Brand is a German film made at the start of Nazi Germany. It was released in mid-June 1933 and depicted events as recent as March of that year. (more…)
S. A. Mann Brand is set during the period shortly before the rise to power of the Nazis in Germany in 1933. The Brand and Baum families live in a Munich tenement. Father Brand, a Social Democrat, scorns his son Fritz for joining the Nazi shock troops. Anni Bauman is, like her parents, a member of the Communist Party. Nevertheless, she is attracted to Fritz Brand, and when she is given an assignment to trap him, she lets him in on the party’s schemes. As the Nazis are raiding a Communist cache, Fritz is wounded in crossfire. On his hospital bed, father and son come back together, and Anni opens up to Fritz. Following his discharge, the shock troops march through the residential quarter, and in the midst of it a colleague of Brand Lohner is shot by a Communist. The film ends with the electoral victory of the Nazis and the arrest of the Communists.
	Der Sieg des Glaubens – The Victory of Faith Der Sieg des Glaubens The Victory of Faith (1933) is the first documentary film directed by Leni Riefenstahl. It documents the Fifth NSDAP Nuremberg Congress shortly after the party came to power The film includes Ernst Röhm, head of the SA and, at the time, the second most powerful man within the Nazi Party. Less than a year later, Röhm attempted, along with other top SA members, a military coup against the elected government of Hitler. The film Triumph des Willens was produced to replace this one and follows a similar script. A British copy was found after 60 years, and is the only known surviving print. (more…)
	Olympia Olympia: Fest der Völker / Fest der Schönheit / Olympia: Festival of Peoples / Festival of Beauty Olympia is a 1938 film by Leni Riefenstahl documenting the 1936 Summer Olympics, held in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin. The movie was produced in two parts: Olympia 1. Teil - Fest der Völker (Festival of Peoples) and Olympia 2. Teil - Fest der Schönheit (Festival of Beauty). Commissioned by the International Olympic Committee, it was the first documentary film on the Olympic Games ever made. Many advanced motion picture techniques, which later became industry standards but which were groundbreaking at the time, were employed, including unusual camera angles, smash cuts, extreme close-ups, setting the railway tracks on the stadium to shoot the crowd and the like. The techniques employed are almost universally admired, but the film is controversial due to its political content. Nevertheless, the film appears on many lists of the greatest films of all-time.

	Hitlerjunge Quex: Ein Film vom Opfergeist der deutschen Jugend – Hitler Youth Quex: A film about the sacrificial spirit of German youth Hitlerjunge Quex Hitler Youth Quex is a 1933 film directed by Hans Steinhoff. Based on the story of Herbert Norkus, it was written by Bobby E. Lüthge and K.A. Schenzinger (who also wrote the novel, Hitlerjunge Quex, on which it is based). It is named after the protagonist, a Hitler Youth nicknamed “Quex,” i.e. quicksilver for his speed as a messenger, who is portrayed as being killed by German Communists while giving out Nazi propaganda. (more…)
Hitler Youth Quex was about the sacrificial spirit of the German youth. A German youth faces a conflict of ideals between his Communist father and his growing allegiance to the Hitler Youth movement which eventually leads to his own death. Like the two other German feature films screened in 1933 which portrayed party martyrs, SA-Mann Brand and Hans Westmar, Hitler Youth Quex unfolds as a family drama, set against the chaotic political and economic crisis of the late Weimar years. Heini Völker, a printer’s apprentice, joins a communist youth group at the prompting of his father, an unemployed worker and war veteran, a choleric drinker who torments his mournful wife. During a weekend outing Heini quickly grows disenchanted with his unruly communist comrades and flees their alcoholic and sexual revelry. Retreating into the woods, he spies an idealized group of Hitler Youths and looks upon their night time ceremony with fascination, an interest undiminished even after the Nazis discover him and send him away. Heini returns to Berlin effusing about the order and discipline of the Hitler Youth, singing their anthem to his mother, and causing his father to scold and beat him. Despite this outburst and the promptings of the communist leader, Stoppel, Heini seeks out the young Nazis Fritz and Ulla. He refuses to participate in a communist raid on the new Hitler Youth dormitory, but cannot fully convince the Nazis of his good faith until he warns them that Stoppel and his group plan to bomb the new hostel. Mother Völker, confronted by an enraged Stoppel after the communist plot backfires, fears for her son, but does not know how to protect him. In desperation, she turns on the gas to put an end to both herself and the sleeping boy. After awakening in a hospital, Heini finds himself surrounded by a group of Hitler Youths who express their gratitude and present him with a uniform and a mirror. As a result of his mother’s death and his father’s submission to the special plea of Hitler Youth Brigade Leader Cass, Heini moves into a Nazi dormitory. Active and energetic (so much so that his alacrity gains him the nickname “Quex,” i.e. quicksilver), Heini works all night to print leaflets for the upcoming election and insists on distributing them in his old neighborhood, Beuselkitz. Members of Stoppel’s group, headed by the vicious Wilde, learn of Heini’s presence and chase him through the streets, cornering him in a fairground where Wilde bludgeons him with the knife once coveted by Heini. When his Nazi cohorts reach him, it is too late. With his last breath Heini gestures upward and utters the words, “Our flag flutters before us, it leads . . .” as the image segues into a close-up of a party banner over which marching figures parade in geometric configurations.

	Um das Menschenrecht – To Human Rights Um das Menschenrecht (1934)
	Bismarck Bismarck (1940) (more…)
‘Bismarck’ recounts the life story of Otto von Bismarck, the prime minister of Prussia who achieved military victory over Austria, humiliated the French government, and proclaimed Kaiser Wilhelm the First as the Emperor of Germany. Bismarck addresses the Landtag: speaking directly into the camera, actor Paul Hartmann (as Bismarck) tells us: “The great questions of the present will not be solved by speeches and parliaments, but by iron and blood.” Although not at all loved by the Queen and Cabinet, Bismarck is appointed by King Wilhelm I as a cabinet member on the advice of his War Minister Roon. Very quickly, Bismarck wins over the trust of the king, while the Cabinet rejects his advice and position more and more. Of all Bismarck’s opponents, the professor of medicine and pacifist delegate Rudolf Virchow is his most critical. Finally, Bismarck disolves the Prussian Landtag and begins the reform of the Prussian army with the help of Roon. Bismarck enters Prussia into an alliance with Austria against Denmark. Soon, a war breaks about between Prussia and Denmark, in which Prussia’s army emerges as victorious, no less in thanks to the strategy of Minister Moltke. Despite Bismarck’s successes in Prussia’s political scene, intrique and attacks against him take place from all sides of the governmental ministries and from the side of the Crown Prince Friedrich. This film carefully sets up parallels between Bismarck and Hitler. As soon as Bismarck becomes prime minister, the next scene shows him building up the army that will create a German empire. (Hitler did much the same as soon as he became chancellor.) Figures in Bismarck’s life are presented as equivalents of figures in Hitler’s career. Although Bismarck installed Wilhelm as emperor, this movie shows Bismarck challenging the Kaiser’s authority and urging him to form a military non-aggression pact with Russia to strengthen Prussia’s eastern flank. Wilhelm is depicted as a man who has outlived his usefulness, who should step aside for a stronger and greater leader: in other words, he’s the equivalent of Paul von Hindenburg, the president of the Weimar Republic who was displaced by Hitler.
	Kolberg Kolberg Kolberg is a 1945 German propaganda film directed by Veit Harlan and Wolfgang Liebeneiner. It opened on January 30, 1945 simultaneously in Berlin and to the crew of the naval base at La Rochelle. It was also screened in the Reich chancellery after the broadcast of Hitler’s last radio address on January 30. The film is in color. The film was intended to boost the morale of the Germans in the last phase of World War II. It was based on the autobiography of Joachim Nettelbeck, mayor of Kolberg. It told the story of the successful defence of the sieged fortress town of Kolberg against French troops between April and July 1807. (more…)
One of the Third Reich’s most ambitious spectaculars, three years in the making, mobilized Germany’s most talented artists and thousands of extras to re-create the true story of a Prussian town’s rebellion against Napoleon’s army of occupation. Laced with anti-Christian symbolism and National Socialist ideology, the film is a mirror of Hitler Germany’s own war for survival. In its characterization of Kolberg’s besieged citizenry, the epic allegorically reflects the spirit of fanatical resolve to fight on, that Nazi propaganda was attempting to instill in the German population during the final years of World War II.
	Der Große König – The Great King Der Große König The Great King is a 1942 drama film directed by Veit Harlan and starring Otto Gebühr. (more…)
Filmed at the height of Nazi Germany’s triumph, in late 1940 and early 1941, The Great King was Germany’s most ambitious film to date. Both Goebbels and Hitler were fascinated by Frederick the Great, and had frequently invoked him in their propaganda as a proto-National Socialist hero, in terms calculated to enhance Hitler’s own prestige and authority. The Great King extended this myth-making onto the plane of grand movie spectacle. Amidst vividly realized battle scenes, Frederick is shown rallying his armies back from crushing defeat, leading Prussia’s way to brilliant triumph in the Seven Years War. His generals counsel capitulation, and his subjects succumb to despair. But Frederick soldiers on; his strength of will is Prussia’s safeguard and salvation. The film’s concluding montage underscores this message, showing an omniscient Frederick, his gigantic eyes looming over homeland and people, in an unmistakable reference to Germany’s own Führer. Yet what seems most striking about The Great King today are its frank depictions of popular war-weariness and complaint, served up by the everyday Prussians – miller’s daughters and foot soldiers – who foreground the film’s storyline. Otto Gebühr, who had long specialized in Frederick roles on screen and stage, plays the lead; director Harlan’s wife, the inimitable Kristina Söderbaum, the miller’s daughter. Directed by Veit Harlan; music by Hans-Otto Borgmann; featuring Otto Gebühr, Kristina Söderbaum, and Gustav Frölich.

	Stukas Stukas (1941) The Ju87B “Stuka” dive-bomber was a much feared weapon in the German armoury against Crete and the Allied Naval forces. The variant used against Crete was the Ju87B of which pre-production examples flew in late 1938, but it was in volume production by 1941. With its thick “gull wing” and screaming near vertical dive it was feared by the Navy who saw how effective these aircraft could be against large naval vessels, when free of any defending air force fighter patrols.
Third Reich-era classic. Young, vigor and aggressive German pilots battle their French arch-enemy during the Nazi campaign in the West, May-June 1940. Real aerial footage; close-ups on J-87 and other German hardware of the period; life cycle of a Stuka pilot on the frontlines; “Death for the Fatherland is so sweet” motto; French tanker from hell trying to humiliate captured pilots, and other assorted propaganda perks; Carl Raddatz as an archetypical Luftwaffe officer, role model for J-87 aces like Ulrich Rudel and others. Goebbels noted in his diary after the “Stukas” preview: “New Ritter film, ‘Stukas.’ Quite good, with some wonderful air footage, but a typical Ritter production. He cannot lead people. Rather too noisy.”

	Der ewige Jude – The Eternal Jew Der ewige Jude The Eternal Jew is a 1940 antisemitic German Nazi propaganda film. Its title in German is the German term for the character of the “Wandering Jew” in medieval folklore. At the insistence of Nazi Germany’s Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, the film was directed by Fritz Hippler. The screenplay is credited to Eberhard Taubert. The film consists of feature and documentary footage combined with materials filmed shortly after the Nazi occupation of Poland. At this time Poland’s Jewish population was about three million, roughly ten percent of the total population. Actor Harry Giese (1903–1991) narrated. (more…)
	Die Rothschilds: Aktien auf Waterloo – The Rothschilds’ Shares in Waterloo Die Rothschilds: Aktien auf Waterloo This is an historical account of the Rothschild family’s rise to fortune, set mostly in Great Britain during the Napoleonic wars. It’s a story of how Nathan Rothschild used the battle of Waterloo as a way to harness power and become one of the richest people in history. The Rothschilds was the first of three stridently antisemitic movies made in 1940 by the Nazis. Beyond its indictment of “Jewish” intrigue and avarice, The Rothschilds aimed to show the “Judafication” of British society at Rothschild hands.
	Jud Süß – The Jew Süß Jud Süß Jud Süß is a 1940 film by Veit Harlan under the supervision of Joseph Goebbels and was intended as an illustration of Nazi racial ideology. The film draws loosely from the novel by Wilhelm Hauff. Süß, played by Ferdinand Marian, is different from the original character because he in is fact Jewish by birth. The movie also played on common prejudiced stereotypes of Jews having hooked noses and being materialistic, immoral, cunning, untrustworthy and physically unattractive. (more…)
	Der Führer schenkt den Juden eine Stadt - The Führer Gives the Jews a City Der Führer schenkt den Juden eine Stadt Kurt Gerron, a Jewish actor/director, made a short film about the Theresienstadt camp. The footage that Gerron shot was intended to be edited into a film called either Theresienstadt. Ein Dokumentarfilm aus dem jüdischen Siedlungsgebiet (Terezin: A Documentary Film of the Jewish Resettlement) or Der Führer schenkt den Juden eine Stadt (The Führer Gives the Jews a City) but the progress of the war in that period (late 1944 to early 1945) made that impossible, so the scenes were used independently. Only about 20 minutes of the film survives.

	Junker der Waffen-SS Junker der Waffen-SS From bayonet fighting to blasting bunkers, glacier climbing to sniper fire, here is the tough training that molded the leaders of Hitler’s armies. This original Nazi film, with action-packed sequences and a brilliant musical score, depicts life at German schools for young men of the Waffen SS (Combat SS). Junker was a paramilitary Nazi rank that was used by the Schutzstaffel between the years of 1933 and 1945. The rank was a special position held by those aspiring for officer commissions in the armed wing of the SS, first known as the SS-Verfügungstruppe and later as the Waffen-SS. (more…)

	Kampf um Norwegen: Feldzug 1940 - Battle for Norway: 1940 campaign Kampf um Norwegen - Feldzug 1940 Battle for Norway - 1940 campaign is a 80 minute-long Nazi propaganda film directed by Martin Rikli and Dr. Werner Buhre by orders from the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht. Released in 1940, the movie follows the Invasion of Denmark and Norway in the spring 1940. The film was never shown in Germany, and nobody knows why. The movie was for a long time considered lost in its entirety. The Bundesarchiv in Berlin held only a few clips from the film. But then a complete nitrate copy of the film surfaced on an Internet auction in 2005. (more…)
	Ohm Krüger Ohm Krüger Stephanus Johannes Paulus Kruger (10 October 1825 – 14 July 1904), better known as Paul Kruger and affectionately known as Oom Paul (Afrikaans: “Uncle Paul”) was State President of the South African Republic (Transvaal). He gained international renown as the face of Boer resistance against the British during the South African or Second Boer War (1899-1902). Ohm Krüger was one of the Third Reich’s most lavish propaganda film productions with an all-star cast and leading actors in even secondary roles. It is the longest single feature film made between 1933-1945 and had a cast of thousands. It drove home the facts that the British did indeed invent the concentration camp, that over 20,000 innocent and unarmed women and children died in those camps in the 19th century, that Kitchener disregarded international convention and used women and children as hostages. The film was a huge hit across Europe, was released with French subtitles and in many other languages, and won the Venice Film Prize. (more…)
	Sprung In Den Feind – Leap Against the Enemy Sprung In Den Feind This is a German propaganda movie made in 1942. It shows the invasion of Holland in 1940 because the English could use it to take the Ruhrgebied. The job of the Fallschirmjägers here was to take the bridge of Moerdijk, and so the Panzers could roll into Vesting Holland (fort Holland). (more…)
	Wort Und Tat – Words and Deeds Wort Und Tat Words and Deeds is a 10 minute-long Nazi propaganda film directed by Fritz Hippler. It was released in 1938. The film is notable for the extensive use of montage to get its message across. The film begins with a montage of clips from the Weimar period, showing a series of clips of Labor and Communist rallies, interspersed with scenes of scantily clad cabaret girls, and then shots of the posters of the different Weimar era political parties. This illustrates the “chaos” and “decadence” of the Weimar period. This sequence ends with former chancellor Heinrich Brüning making a speech against National Socialism. The film then goes into a series of sequences showing how Nazi rule has improved various aspects of German life. (more…)

The Occult History of the Third Reich

1. Adolf Hitler

2. The SS – Blood and Soil

3. The Swastika

4. Himmler the Mystic

This 1991 History Channel documentary series explains the influences of alternative belief systems (occult, paganism, mysticism, etc.) on the Nazi ideology and Hitler's personal philosophy. It also documents the history and development of ideas and symbols and of the eugenics movement.

In the early 20th century, the young Adolf Hitler was just one of many German-speaking people attracted by a new Germanic mythology that combined ancient legends and esoteric cosmologies with cutting-edge theories of genetic science. In the hands of the Nazis, the result was a new ideology that saw racial purity as the key to human destiny. (more…)

Darwin’s Dangerous Idea

1. Body and Soul

2. Born Equal?

3. Life and Death

(BBC 2009)

Darwin’s Dangerous Idea - Andrew Marr:

1 - Body and Soul

In the first episode of the three-part series, Andrew Marr explores how Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection has taken on a life of its own far beyond the world of science.

He argues that Darwin’s theory has transformed our understanding of what it means to be human. Over the last 150 years, Darwin’s ideas have challenged the need for a creator, undermined religious authority, and provided new ways of looking at the origins of human morality.

Marr’s journey begins following Darwin’s footsteps in Tierra del Fuego at the southernmost tip of South America where Darwin first encountered an ‘uncivilised’ native tribe. This began to raise questions in his mind about the origins of the human race. The answers to these questions would emerge over the next 30 years, culminating in the publication of On The Origin of Species in 1859.

Marr then traces the development of Darwin’s idea in the years since then and finds a range of influences that Darwin could never have imagined: from the existential philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche to the battlefields of the First World War; from the Freudian psychoanalyst’s couch to the Vatican; and from the genetic logic of kindness to an Islamic creationist’s claim that Darwin is to blame for modern terrorism. Darwin’s dangerous idea is as influential and challenging today as it was 150 years ago.

2 - Born Equal?

Andrew Marr discovers something surprising about his own evolutionary history as this epic series continues with an exploration of Darwin’s impact on politics and society.

Under the banner of Survival of the Fittest, Darwin’s theory of natural selection has been used to justify imperial expansion and the oppression of indigenous peoples; to inform the science of eugenics - the selective breeding of humans which was implemented in the United States in the early 20th century; and to provide a veneer of scientific respectability to Nazi plans to create an Aryan master race. It was also used quite explicitly to explain the twisted logic of the final solution.

But Andrew Marr also finds a kind of redemption for Darwin’s theory of evolution. After the Second World War, it was a founding idea behind the democratic, anti-racist values of the United Nations. More recently, it has also been used to help eliminate a fatal genetic disease from the Orthodox Jewish community in Brooklyn. Marr goes on to consider the difficult social and political choices presented by predictive DNA testing - the final frontier of Darwin’s Dangerous Idea.

3 - Life and Death

In the final episode of this ground-breaking series about Charles Darwin’s legacy, Andrew Marr discovers how Darwin’s ideas are helping us to save ourselves and all life on earth from extinction. Marr argues that Charles Darwin is the father of ecology. The modern environmental movement was built upon his insight that all life on earth is linked by a delicate web of connections. He also discovers that Darwin’s dangerous idea is inspiring scientists to create a ‘flotilla of Darwinian Noah’s Arks’ to help save life on earth from disaster.

Exploring the impact of industrialisation, intensive farming and our growing hunger for meat, Marr tells the story of our slow awakening to the full implications of Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection and our own destructive powers as a species. After showing how Darwin developed his ideas by digging up fossils, exploring coral reefs and studying the habits of the humble earthworm, Marr explains how Darwin’s dangerous idea was launched into the space age. He discovers the mysterious movements of the ‘mouse society’, snorkels over a coral reef and visits a ‘boiling cauldron of evolution’ - the tropical rainforest - which is now threatened by the shadow of mass extinction.

Over the last 150 years, the combination of Darwin’s ideas with politics has often had disastrous social consequences. In this programme, Andrew Marr argues that our failure to combine politics with Darwin’s insights into the delicate connections between all life on earth could be accelerating the countdown to our own extinction.
