Having won top awards at the United Solo Festival in New York, Leni’s Last Lament now comes to the Edinburgh Fringe.
Hitler’s controversial filmmaker, Leni Riefenstahl, poses as a misunderstood victim as she attempts to edit, reassemble, and sanitise her notorious past.
A woman of many contradictions, Leni aligned herself with Hitler for fame – and although blacklisted for this alliance, she is still recognised as a genius filmmaker for her innovative work by the film community throughout her long and varied life.
Assembly Rooms (Drawing Room), Thursday 1st – Sunday 25th August 2024 (not 13th, 20th) at 17:25. THEATRE
