The story

In 1941, Austrian SS-Standartenführer Hans Landa, nicknamed "The Jew Hunter," interrogates French dairy farmer Perrier LaPadite about a fugitive Jewish family, the Dreyfuses.

Army First Lieutenant Aldo Raine recruits Jewish American soldiers to the "Basterds", a black ops commando unit tasked with instilling fear among Nazis in occupied France by killing and scalping them.

Landa, the premiere's head of security, interrogates Shosanna, but does not reveal whether he recognizes her.
