Propaganda

PROPAGANDA

Produced with the intention of persuading viewers of a particular belief or ideology, propaganda films have been used by governments around the world since the early 20th Century. Though documentary is the most popular form, drama is also used to convey a ‘message’.

What to watch: The Triumph of the Will (1935), The Plow that Broke the Plains (1936), Der Fuehrer’s Face (1943).
