This miniseries begins with the young developing mind of a burgeoning madman, following Hitler through his formative years and his evolution into the man who exploited the nation that cried out for a leader. Finding his foothold in politics, Hitler ruthlessly climbed to power and brutally seduced Germany, drawing in the support of Ernst Röhm who formed the militant SA. He attracted socialites Ernst and Helene Hanfstaengl, who funded his political efforts, and journalist Fritz Gerlich. Through the birth of the Nazi Party, the failed Beer Hall Putsch, the charge of treason which turned him into a national figure, his time in Landsberg Prison and the writing of Mein Kampf then his reintroduction to politics as the leader of the National Socialists - this is the rise of Hitler from a wayward young man to presidential candidate to Chancellor. As the Reichstag burns in 1933, everyone who was pulled into Hitler's vortex realises the hideous truth of what has been created - and it's too late to change it.
