Hitler, a Film from Germany is the most ambitious film of the postwar German cinema. Part Dantean pilgrimage and part Freudian mourning work, it is a seven-hour examination of the impact of Adolf Hitler. Through a unique montage combination of speech, projected imagery, and music, it explores the interrelationship between cinema and the most cataclysmic events of the twentieth century. The film was a West German-French-British coproduction, and this version has the narration in English. Subtitles are optional for German-language sections. Premiere in America, a 1980 documentary from the time of the film's New York premiere, is available as a supplement.
