Plot.

Though almost forgotten today, Veit Harlan was one of Nazi Germany's most notorious filmmakers. His most perfidious film was the treacherous anti-Semitic propaganda film Jud Süß - required viewing for all SS members. This documentary is an eye-opening examination of World War II film history as well as the story of a German family from the Third Reich to the present; one that is marked by reckoning, denial and liberation.

Harlan – In the Shadow of Jew Süss (German: Harlan – Im Schatten von Jud Süß) is a 2008 documentary film by German director Felix Moeller about one of the most notorious Nazi German filmmakers, Veit Harlan and his family. It focuses on the "wildly varying attitudes of Harlan's children and grandchildren", and how they struggle even today with the legacy of their ancestor's work.

The documentary also explores Harlan's motivations for making Jew Süss, a film that The New York Times has called "perhaps the most notorious anti-Semitic movie ever made". Harlan was the only artist from the Nazi era to be charged with war crimes.

The film uses "never-before-seen archival footage, unearthed film excerpts, rare home movies and new interviews".It had its German television premiere on WDR on 23 September 2010.It is distributed in the U.S. by Zeitgeist Films in 2010.The film is the subject of the critical study Felix Moeller’s Harlan: Im Schatten von Jud Süss as Family Drama by David Bathrick.Veit Harlan's relations who appear as interview subjects include his son the filmmaker Thomas Harlan, his daughters Maria Körber and Susanne Körber, both actresses; Suzanne's daughter the film journalist Jessica Jacoby; his nephew film producer Jan Harlan; his niece Christiane Kubrick, also an actress and the widow of Stanley Kubrick.
