Synopsis:
Charismatic leader, pitiless politician, psychopath; Adolf Hitler is a historical enigma, his personality so complex cannot be explained as simply evil. This thorough and engaging documentary ambitiously intends to try and find a solution to Hitler's mystery. One way to grasp a deeper understanding of the man who brought the world to the brink of catastrophe is to rely on the testimony of one of his closest collaborators, his bodyguard. A close insight into the Fuhrer's everyday life, HITLER'S BODYGUARD offers a rare opportunity to get a glimpse from the tyrant's own perspective - his phobias, obsessions and weaknesses included. Hitler's fragility, personal and political, as well as his growing isolation is accurately investigated, and a significant light is cast on the many failed attempts to overthrow his dictatorship.
