Experts estimate that of the nearly 1,200 feature films that were produced in Nazi Germany, roughly 100 were blatant Nazi propaganda. Decades later, dozens of these films remain under lock and key, still banned in several countries. Utilizing historical clips, contemporary interviews, and recorded discussions from public screenings, director Felix Moeller (Harlan: In the Shadow of Jew Süss) examines the power and potential danger of film when used for ideological purposes while capturing just how contentious these films remain today.
