This documentary recounts the life and work of one of most famous, and yet reviled, German film directors in history, Leni Riefenstahl. The film recounts the rise of her career from a dancer, to a movie actor to the most important film director in Nazi Germany who directed such famous propaganda films as Triumph of the Will and Olympiad. The film also explores her later activities after Nazi Germany's defeat in 1945 and her disgrace for being so associated with it which includes her amazingly active life over the age of 90.

Riefenstahl habla claro. El director del documental hace las preguntas precisas y ella contesta. Además, vemos de primera mano por qué es la directora más influyente de la historia con apenas un puñado de películas.
