Führer und Verführer
FÜHRER UND VERFÜHRER seeks answers to important historical questions in a way that has never been shown before: How did the perpetrators succeed in implementing their crimes, and why did the majority of Germans follow Hitler into this catastrophe? Author and director Joachim A. Lang (MACKIE MESSER - BRECHTS DREIGROSCHENFILM) sheds light on the period from the so-called "Anschluss" of Austria in March 1938 to the downfall with murder and suicide in the Führerbunker in May 1945 - fateful years in world history in which Adolf Hitler conceived and realised his two most important personal goals: To expand the 'living space of the Germans' in the East and to exterminate the European Jews.
The film goes straight to the centre of power. The film allows an examination of history as well as a concentrated look at human behaviour and the essential mechanisms of action of public images and public language right up to the present day. In order to avoid the usual depiction based on staged images, the film opts for a fictionalisation based on historical sources, including documented dialogues. This is complemented by archive footage that has rarely been shown before and interview sequences with Holocaust survivors.
