It is propaganda intended to persuade.
Leni's films were to glorify and mythifying; this Netflix crap is the antithesis of that; as far as I can tell, sans actually watching it.
As I clearly stated, Leni's films are up lifting, mythifying, raising up of a group.
"ADOLESCENCE" smears and distorts a certain group. It is much closer to Russian book "THE PROTOCOLS OF THE ELDERS OF ZION", which smears, ridicules, and lies about ALL Jews EVERYWHERE and was loved by the likes of Henry Ford, Edison, and Woodrow Wilson, amongst others.
Except for the fact that BIRTH OF A NATION was part fact and a lot of fiction, THAT film is a closer comparison with THE TRIUMPH OF THE WILL.
And NO, I am NOT nitpicking; I'm attempting to give a more accurate view of it all.
