This thought provoking and spirited documentary offers an intimate portrait of the German-Jewish philosopher Hannah Arendt. One of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century, Arendt aused an uproar in the 1960s by coining the subversive concept of the "Banality of Evil" when referring to the trial of Adolph Eichmann, which she covered for the New Yorker magazine.
