Hitler's Entourage

While Adolf Hitler was the face of National Socialism, he rose to power only with the cooperation and support of his closest accomplices. This six-part documentary series reveals the inner circle of power to portray the men and women who supported his ideology, enforced it, and ultimately benefited from it. 

Based on personal documents, historical footage, and the latest research, each episode sheds light on a central figure of the NS leadership – from the propagandist Joseph Goebbels to the power-hungry Hermann Göring, from the fanatical Rudolph Hess to the ambitious Albert Speer, and from Hitler’s manipulative secretary Martin Bormann to the disputed figure of his mistress, Eva Braun. The harrowing chronicle reveals that Hitler’s rule was based not only on fear and force, but also on loyalty and the pursuit of influence.
