Abstract
This title contains the DVD bonus content/extras. About the main title: A biopic of Hannah Arendt, the influential German-Jewish philosopher and political theorist. Arendt's reporting on the 1961 trial of ex-Nazi Adolf Eichmann in The New Yorker, controversial both for her portrayal of Eichmann and the Jewish councils, introduced her now-famous concept of the 'Banality of Evil.' Using footage from the actual Eichmann trial and weaving a narrative that spans three countries, director Margarethe von Trotta (Vision, Rosa Luxemburg) beautifully turns the often invisible passion for thought into dramatic cinema. The sublime Barbara Sukowa re-teams with Margarethe von Trotta for a brilliant new biopic of the influential German-Jewish philosopher and political theorist.
An Official Selection at the Toronto International and New York Jewish Film Festivals, Hannah Arendt also co-stars Klaus Pohl as philosopher Martin Heidegger, Nicolas Woodeson as New Yorker editor William Shawn, and two-time Oscar Nominee Janet McTeer (Albert Nobbs) as novelist Mary McCarthy.
