plot synopsis:
A young jewish woman, who had to witness how Nazis in the occupied France killed her family, owns, now with a new identity, a cinema in Paris. When she is asked to organize a top-class movie premiere for the heads of the Reich, she senses a chance. Her way crosses with the Jewish-American group of guerilla soldiers led by Lt. Aldo Raine, whose mission it is to kill and slaughter Nazis. They are closer to the goal, to also kill the leaders of the Reich and the premiere culminates in a historically decisive night.
