You're certainly not wrong there, I studied this film and her career as part of a unit on Propaganda and Life in Nazi Germany, and whilst yes calling it a Mondo film does seem not only anachronistic, but incorrect, it's also as the Inspector said, propaganda.

The center of the discussion surrounding the film for us was propaganda or documentary, and from the footage used all the way down to how it was shot, it was undeniable that it was propaganda, but we'll never really know whether she shared those views at the time or if she was just doing her job and making it extremely good.

Either way, I found the film a tedious bore, it's fantastic direction can't save it from being a repetitive trudge of rally shots to marching shots to boring speeches, rinse and repeat.

Glad a company has it though that caters to people with an interest in film and isn't that Neo nazi guy who wanted $50 for the preorder of a blu ray he was supposedly doing
