The 31st Annual St. Louis Jewish Film Festival: "The Tasters" and "Vindicta"
"The Tasters"
3:00 p.m.
Inspired by a shocking true story, The Tasters is a chilling portrait of survival inside Hitler’s inner circle. In the autumn of 1943, Rosa, a young woman fleeing bombed Berlin, is forced into a terrifying role: along with other women from a remote village near the Wolf’s Lair, she must taste the F?hrer’s meals each day — never knowing if the food is poisoned. Caught between starvation and the constant threat of death, the women form fragile bonds marked by fear, rivalry, and desperate loyalty.
"Vindicta"
7:00 p.m.
After witnessing the murder of her parents, a young Jewish woman is forced into hiding — and into a life defined by rage. What begins as survival hardens into a relentless pursuit of vengeance, as she uses intimacy and deception to hunt those responsible for the destruction of her family. Each encounter blurs the line between power and peril, justice and obsession. Inspired by true accounts of women who resisted the Nazi regime, Vindicta is a tense and morally unsettling portrait of trauma, desire, and fury — asking whether revenge can ever heal what hatred has already destroyed.
The 31st Annual St. Louis Jewish Film Festival returns March 15–26, 2026, at B&B Theatres in Creve Coeur with six days of international cinema that brings audiences together through powerful storytelling, conversation, and community. The festival will present twelve films from around the world, including documentaries, dramas, and comedies that explore Jewish identity, resilience, memory, and the universal human experience.
