>Triumph of the Will (German: Triumph des Willens) is a 1935 German propaganda film directed, produced, edited, and co-written by Leni Riefenstahl. It chronicles the 1934 Nazi Party Congress in Nuremberg, which was attended by more than 700,000 Nazi supporters.[1] The film contains excerpts from speeches given by Nazi leaders at the Congress, including Adolf Hitler, Rudolf Hess, and Julius Streicher, interspersed with footage of massed Sturmabteilung and Schutzstaffel troops and public reaction. Hitler commissioned the film and served as an unofficial executive producer; his name appears in the opening titles. The film's overriding theme is the return of Germany as a great power, with Hitler as the leader who will bring glory to the nation. Because the film was made after the 1934 Night of the Long Knives (on June 30) many prominent Sturmabteilung (SA) members are absent—they were murdered in that Party purge, organized and orchestrated by Hitler to replace the SA with the Schutzstaffeln (SS) as his main paramilitary force.

German films at the time were world class-tier, which is another reason the allieds started WW2. They didn't want serious competition for hollywood.

>Olympia is a 1938 German documentary film written, directed and produced by Leni Riefenstahl, documenting the 1936 Summer Olympics, held in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany. The film was released in two parts: Olympia 1. Teil — Fest der Völker (Festival of Nations) and Olympia 2. Teil — Fest der Schönheit (Festival of Beauty). It was the first documentary feature film of the Olympic Games ever made. Many advanced motion picture techniques, which later became industry standards but which were groundbreaking at the time, were employed —including unusual camera angles, smash cuts, extreme close-ups, placing tracking shot rails within the bleachers, and the like. The techniques employed are almost universally admired, but the film is controversial due to its political context. Nevertheless, the film appears on many lists of the greatest films of all-time, including Time magazine's "All-Time 100 Movies."
>Olympia set the precedent for future films documenting and glorifying the Olympic Games, particularly the Summer Games. The 1936 Summer Olympics torch relay was devised by the German sports official Dr. Carl Diem for these Olympic Games in Berlin. Riefenstahl later staged the torch relay for this film, as with competitive events of the Games.

dudes marching up and down
crappy speeches
plot summary:
people march up and down while hitler and co explain how their party will be the only power in germany for the next 1,000 years
hitler argues that the reason the nazi party is in power is because of its racial superiority (within the german population), and how they are the cream of the crop. Hitler adds that germans are peaceful people and love peace, and the reich will bring about long term peace in germany.
some dude states that hitler, and the party, will be sorely missed, and its true contributions will only be appreciated when it is gone
cue shots of people marching up and down

Hitler visits a city, nazis have fun partying, then a few political discourses and finally nazis creating figures with formations of people.
All in all, a very comfy flick.

Its on Amazon but there aren't any reviews and the release date is the 25th, Synapse's official release date was the 8th and there are reviews and screenshots elsewhere on the web. I guess we'll have to wait til January before we see a decent rip out although I'll probably have bought it by then.
