Last week marked 80 years since Adolf Hitler died by suicide in his Berlin bunker in the final days of World War 2.
Fellow monster Joseph Goebbels, his loyal propaganda minister, was briefly Chancellor for 24 hours as he and his wife Magda murdered their six children in their sleep before taking their own lives.
Now a chilling new film charts the last few years of Nazi Germany and their relationship in leading the Third Reich.
Now the 2024 German-language movie titled Goebbels and the Fuhrer is coming to UK cinemas this summer.
The film’s official synopsis reads: “This striking historical drama chronicles the final seven years of the Nazi regime, focusing on the complex and often volatile relationship between Adolf Hitler and his Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels. As the mastermind behind the regime’s propaganda, Goebbels crafts films and media to rally the German populace for war and justify the Holocaust. As the tides of war turn against Germany, both men grapple with the impending downfall of their empire, leading to their ultimate demise in the Führerbunker in 1945. Effective and uncompromising, Goebbels and the Führer is a powerful, unsettling, yet thought-provoking film from award-winning writer and director Joachim A Lang.”
Goebbels and the Führer releases in UK cinemas on June 6, 2025.
