In the midst of Nazi Germany, Magda Goebbels, wife of propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, found meaning in her life as an activist for the NSDAP.
She is now a central figure of the Third Reich.
But for Hitler, politics is a man's business.
He wants to make her the perfect Nazi wife, a role model for "Aryan" women.
Thus, what Hitler imposes on Magda Goebbels is to rediscover the way of life which had driven her mad with despair with her first husband, Günther Quandt… But this time, under the eye of the cameras.
This story is a Europe 1 Studio production.
