Victory of Faith (Sieg Des Glaubens) DVD. Found after 70 years, Leni Riefenstahl’s Victory of Faith, is again available. A key work in the evolution of Nazi propaganda, Victory of Faith provides an ambitious record of the 1933 Nazi Party rally at Nuremberg. Released in early 1934, the film was enthusiastically promoted by the Nazi Party in presenting itself to the German people. Later that same year, however, Hitler oversaw a bloody purge of many of his “old comrades,” notably Brownshirt leader Ernst Röhm, whose leading role at the 1933 rally – second only to Hitler – figures promi- nently in Riefenstahl’s film. Overnight, Röhm became persona non grata, and all references to him were obliterated from the public record.
