Ein Wochenende in München. Kunst, Propaganda und Terror im Dritten Reich

Über

Most of our visual sense of the Nazi era comes to us through black and white images; photographs of book burnings, Nazi rallies, Hitler speeches; and the liquidation of the ghettoes are all somehow more compelling for their lack of color. But in 1939, an amateur film group made color movies of the pomp and ceremony that accompanied the opening of the House of German Art, Hitler's monument to the Aryan culture he was trying to create. Robert Wistrich has selected stills from the movies and provided a history of Nazi propaganda as well as comments from spectators at the ceremonies capture on film to accompany them.
