Documentary about the infamous German director Veit Harlan, who directed Nazi propaganda films, including the notorious Jew Süss. The interesting angle on this film is that it's conveyed almost entirely through interviews with Harlan's descendents, interspersed with clips from his films. His family has differing opinions about the man, his work, and his motives, some are generational-based, others seem to have been formed by life events.

Basically nothing but talking heads--but it moved along pretty well, and held the interest throughout.
