Have you ever wondered how a dictator actually goes about his daily business? or what it must be like to have the power of life or death over those you control, a figure which can be in the millions for some? What are the habits, the obsessions and the whims of these men, capable of subjecting an entire population to their own destructive madness? These questions are all raised in this film which offers a close look into the intimate life of three of the most murderous dictators of the 20th century: Joseph Stalin, Idi Amin Dada and Muammar Gaddafi.
