Inglourious Basterds
Once upon a time in German-occupied France, Shosanna Dreyfus witnesses the
execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa. She narrowly
escapes and flees to Paris where she forges a new identity as the owner and
operator of a cinema.
Elsewhere in Europe, Lieutenant Aldo Raine organises a group of Jewish
soldiers to engage in targeted acts of retribution. Raine’s squad joins
German actress and undercover agent Bridge Von Hammersmark on a mission to take
down the leaders of The Third Reich. Fates converge under a cinema marquee,
where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own…
