This thesis now presented brings the investigation about the imagery representation of content in the films of Leni Riefenstahl throughout the course of Peircean signical categories. Applying Semiotic from Peircean extraction, the sign issue was investigated, which serves as a bridge between the historical observation and the premise that nazistic conceptual content is represented aesthetically on films of Leni Riefenstahl. By identifying within the filmography by Leni Riefenstahl the film before her collaboration with Hitler, and of films from the period covered by her relationship with the National Socialist Party and with prominent figures of Nazism, follows the note of each one of these cases in particular. Seeking contextualization of her films, was verified the trajectory of Leni Riefenstahl in articulation with the film, cultural and political context of Germany from the years before the Nazi era and the Nazi period until the end of World War II. We seek to articulate elements within the field of Design with related areas, such as the cinema, that can contribute to a new perspective of theoretical research in this field. Riefenstahl s films give us content rich in interpretive possibilities still little explored by the theory of the Design or in the light of the Peircean semiotics. The Filmography in question inaugurates trends that influenced the contemporary imagery and culture to Western film production of the 20th century.
