Goebbels and the Fuhrer

Joseph Goebbels, the Minister of Propaganda, accompanies Hitler during the seven years from the "Anschluss" of Austria in March 1938 to the murder and suicide in the Fuhrerbunker in May 1945. While Hitler is at the height of his power, Goebbels is the creator of the pictures of the flag waving crowds and of the anti-Semitic films "Jud Suss" and "Der ewige Jude", that prepare the people for the mass murder of the Jews. After the defeat at Stalingrad and the situation becoming increasingly hopeless in late 1944, Goebbels plans the most radical propaganda act, his last staging, with Hitler's suicide, the murder of his family, and his own suicide.
