Forbidden films : the hidden legacy of Nazi film
Germany's Third Reich made 1,200 feature films. According to experts, some 100 of these were blatant Nazi propaganda. More than 40 of these films remain under lock and key. Director Felix interviews German film historians, archivists and filmgoers in an investigation of the power, and potential danger, of cinema when used for ideological purposes. Moeller shows how contentious these films remain, and how propaganda can retain its punch when presented to audiences susceptible to manipulation.
