There's a BBC documentary which does a good job of detailing the political plotting of the time: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/m00084td/rise-of-the-nazis
The parallels right now between Hitler as he attempted the invasion of the USSR and Putin's current isolated derangement just keep on growing. The latest series of Rise of the Nazis on the BBC is incredibly interesting to watch with the current situation in mind - https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p09jgldz/rise-of-the-nazis-dictators-at-war-episode-1
PBS released a great 3-part documentary last month on exactly this called Rise of the Nazis. It focuses on the years 1930-1933.
