A terrific study follows the rise and fall of actress Lída Baarová, whom beauty propelled into movie stardom and whose affair with Goebbels overshadowed the rest of her life. Expelled from Germany but considered a Nazi collaborator back in Prague, she is later imprisoned and forced to live in exile. Recalling her tea with Hitler and the ill-fated affair, Baarová’s view of herself as a victim is juxtaposed with archive footage and movie extracts questioning the tragedy of her fate.
