Documentary film maker WINFRIED BONENGEL

Documentary film maker WINFRIED BONENGEL. In 1993 BONENGEL made the film "Profession: Neo Nazi," which follows Ewald Althans, a rising leader on Germany's neo-nazi scene. Althans is different from the stereotypical neo-nazi: intelligent, successful and well-dressed. The film ignited one of the fiercest debates on documentary film making in Germany's history. The film was barred from many states and the distributor was forced to withdraw it from circulation
