I'm sure you know all about Marlene Dietrich, Ingrid Bergman or Greta Garbo, stars of the silver screen, but have you heard of Kristina Söderbaum? 

On today's episode of the Reel Reich, we are discussing the "Marilyn Monroe" of Nazi Germany. We'll look at her career and complicity in the National Socialist film propaganda machine as well as the contradictions in Nazi beauty ideals compared with the glamorous goddesses of film.
