Episode 4: Romans, Hitler, Hollywood (feat. Bernd Bösel and Claudia Sandberg‪)‬ Real Is Not Real Enough

If you’ve ever watched a historical Hollywood movie, this episode is for you. In fact, there’s so much to discuss that this is the first part of a double episode. Here, we unpack notions of truth and the distortions that the filmmaking industry thrives on.
