Hannah Arendt: Facing Tyranny (2025)
Directed by Chana Gazit, Jeff Bieber
Documentary · 1h 24m
Hannah Arendt was one of the most fearless writers of the 20th century, and her report of the Adolf Eichmann trial coined the phrase, “the banality of evil.” The German American scholar transformed her time as a political prisoner and refugee during World War II into insights about the human condition, the refugee crisis and totalitarianism.
