I was just poking around amazon.de, and came across this documentary...

http://www.amazon.de/Ewige-Sch%C3%B6nheit-Todessehnsucht-Dritten-Reich/dp/B000BEQO4Q/

...called "Ewige Schönheit - Film und
Todessehnsucht im Dritten Reich". I'm not sure
what "Todessehnsucht" means ("longing for
death"???), but it apparently includes some sort
of analysis of Leni's films (from the
description: "Er analysiert, wie Albert Speer und
Leni Riefenstahl die Realität inszenieren
(Reichsparteitage) und ritualisieren").

Anyone know anything about it? Obviously it deals
with NSDAP films more generally, and I suppose
there's only a small portion devoted to Leni's
films, but I wonder if it says anything interesting/relevant?
