Germany, after the loss in World War I, was characterized by terribly difficult times; a depression that lasts until the rise of Adolf Hitler. The idea of the great Fuhrer, the name Hitler gave to himself, came into common language when Hitler gained complete control over Germany. The fearless leader gave optimism to a country in dyer need of something, anything uplifting. The idea of the great leader was very evident in the film, Triumph of the Will, showing Hitler being in supreme control, with the people having unquestioned faith in where he was leading them. The people stand together, embracing the Fuhrer, in a great showing of national pride that over took Germany in the decade of World War II.

             In the eyes of the German people, Adolf Hitler stood as the fearless leader that would lead them out of their depression and into a new life filled with prosperity and happiness. Throughout the film, Triumph of the Will, the viewer sees a Germany filled with glorify parades, upbeat citizens, blue skies, and an overall feeling of optimism. Streets are packed with Germans, waiting for the Fuhrer, their savior. This joyous atmosphere that is seen in the film, is all because of Hitler, or so it seems. This devoted faith in Hitler leads all of Germany to act as one, becoming a community with one goal. The mass demonstrations that are seen in the film, show large collections of people, all having complete faith in Hitler, and happy over the current state of Germany and the future that is in store for her.

             The speeches that are spoken by Hitler and his fellow Nazi's are laden with references to a better Germany for all. The goal of the National Socialist Workers Party is a united Germany, and this becomes very evident while you watch the spectators at these rallies. Proclamations such as, "Here we stand; we are ready to carry Germany into a new era." are said loud and proud by German workers.
