Veit Harlan

Viac o knihe

Veit Harlan, a controversial figure in German cinema, rose to prominence under the National Socialist regime, notably with his film Jud Süss, which is both artistically notable and morally condemned. His legacy prompts critical inquiries regarding his motivations and the extent of his anti-Semitic themes in other works. The book explores whether Harlan was coerced into creating such propaganda and examines the implications of studying his films in the context of Nazism and the Holocaust, raising essential questions about art, morality, and historical accountability.
