Stylised film noir sequences illustrate the use of photography as
a sinister tool of mass manipulation. Unearthing previously unseen,
private images of Hitler this films explore how his image was constructed
by the photographers closest to him; including his mistress Eva Braun
and Walter Frentz – the man who had the opportunity to assassinate
Hitler in 1944, but chose not to.
Interviews include: Hanns Peter Frentz, the switch board operator
Rochus Mish who was present when Hitler and Eva Braun commit suicide,
and Gertraud Weisker, the cousin of Eva Braun, who stayed with her
at the Berghof.
