We talk to author and journalist Nigel Farndale, about his new novel "The Dictator's Muse". The novel centres around the controversial film-maker who made her mark directing the movies "Triumph of the Will" and "Olympia". Leni Riefenstahl may have been a pioneer in terms of film direction and rising the ranks of the movie industry as a female film maker, yet her association with Hitler and the Nazi Party was always something she tried to distance herself from in the later years of her life. In many respects, she signed a Faustian pact with the Nazi party who funded and allowed her to flourish as a gifted film-maker but her talent would never make it to Hollywood.
Join Inside History and Nigel Farndale as we talk about the life, films and politics of Leni Riefenstahl.
Nigel Farndale's book The Dictator's Muse is available from our bookshop and released on the 24th June
