The Swedish actress Zarah Leander was the biggest star in the Third Reich. Her films were box-office successes beyond the German borders and her record sales made her millions. In 1943 she faced a choice that would alter her life forever. This sparkling and riveting show portrays a woman torn between artistry and politics; a woman who was both idolized and hated - and whose songs remain unforgettable to this day.
