Inglourious Basterds (2009) Synopsis

1941, Nazi-occupied France. After witnessing the brutal massacre of her family at the hands of evil SS officer Colonel Hans Landa, young Jewish refugee Shosanna Dreyfus swears revenge. Three years later, Fredrick Zoller, a feared German sniper and protagonist in a Joseph Goebbels propaganda film, takes a shine to Shosanna, who now operates a cinema in Paris. But with the film's premiere rumoured to catch the attention of Adolf Hitler himself, Lieutenant Aldo Raine's Basterds--a Jewish-American suicide squad ridding France of Nazis--are determined to seize the golden opportunity to crash their party. And soon, the memory of a blood-stained past paired with the prospect of a brighter future will give birth to the ultimate payback. But who shall live, and who shall die in the private screening of death?—Nick Riganas
