Triumph Des Willens {Triumph Of The Will} (1935, NSDAP)
Triumph of the Will is a 1935 German National Socialist film directed, produced, edited and co-written by Leni Riefenstahl. Adolf Hitler commissioned the film and served as an unofficial executive producer; his name appears in the opening titles.
It chronicles the 1934 National Socialist Party Congress in Nuremberg, which was attended by more than 700,000 National Socialist supporters.
The film contains excerpts of speeches given by National Socialist leaders at the Congress, including Adolf Hitler, Rudolf Hess and Julius Streicher, interspersed with footage of massed Sturmabteilung (SA) and Schutzstaffel (SS) troops and public reaction. Its overriding theme is the return of Germany as a great power with Hitler as its leader.
The film was produced after the Night of the Long Knives and many formerly prominent SA members are absent.
