Publisher's Synopsis
As Hitler's grip on power tightens, preparations are being made for the Berlin Olympics. Leni Riefenstahl is the pioneering, sexually-liberated star film-maker of the Third Reich. She has been chosen by Hitler to capture the Olympics on celluloid. Kim Newlands is the English athlete 'sponsored' by the Blackshirts and devoted to his mercurial, socialite girlfriend Connie. Alun Pryce is the Welsh communist sent to infiltrate the Blackshirts. Through her camera lens, Leni is able to manipulate the truth. But while some scenes from her life end up on the cutting room floor, this does not mean they are lost forever...
