How did the controversial leader of the Paris avant-garde break through to the heart of American culture?

His dream of a museum to house them died with him, until it was rediscovered by Alfred H. Barr, Jr.

Walter Frentz var en af Hitlers topfotografer, og han kommer til Danmark sommeren 1943 efter ordre fra Føreren. Hans opgave er at dokumentere, hvor langt tyskerne er nået med den såkaldte Atlantvold langs den jyske vestkyst. Men i takt med, at Walter Frentz rejser rundt i et postkortskønt Danmark, bliver Atlantvolden mindre vigtig. For fotografen havner i en af de mest skelsættende måneder i den danske besættelseshistorie.
