The Decent One
2019
Computer Files, Websites
In 1945 a young soldier comes into the possession of a suitcase filled with private letters, documents, journals and photographs belonging to Heinrich Himmler. THE DECENT ONE uses these extraordinary, never-before-seen materials to access the deluded, unwavering and unnerving life and mind of the merciless "architect of the Final Solution". The film divulges the contents of letters to and from Himmler’s wife, daughter and mistress, and uses archival footage of Himmler’s time growing up in the 1920s with Adolf Hitler. This is a chilling insight into how the ideologies of a once lower-middle-class man turned him into a notorious war criminal. Official Selection at the **Berlin International Film Festival**. Winner of Best Israeli Documentary at the **Jerusalem Film Festival.** "*Eerie and utterly riveting.*" - Farran Smith Nehme, ***The New York Post***
