THE BOOKS HE DIDN'T BURN
Adolf Hitler owned 16,000 books at the time of his suicide. Hitler's markings in the surviving volumes provide deep insights into the sources of his "world view". Based on six very different books from his library, the film tells the story of Hitler's path from youthful fantasist to mass murderer - and of the authors and publishers who paved the way for him.
