A double bill of Leni Riefenstahl films. German filmmaker, Arnold Franck, wrote 'Holy Mountain' specifically for the legendary Leni Riefenstahl in 3 days. It took, however, over a year to film. The story is essentially a love triangle between an exotic dancer (Riefenstahl), a climber (Luis Trenker) and a young skier (Ernst Peterson), set in a beautiful Alpine village. 'The Wonderful Horrible Life of Leni Riefenstahl' is Ray Muller's documentary about filmstar turned filmmaker. Riefenstahl (at the age of 100) takes a journey through her past, which includes: being admired by Adolf Hitler; making the infamous documentary 'Triumph of the Will' about the Fuhrer; making the documentary 'Olympia' about the 1936 Olympics held in Germany; her career after the fall of Hitler; and her current underwater photography. Riefenstahl is confronted by Muller as to why she became associated with Hitler and he goes on to examine why she is both hated and loved as a filmmaker.
