Italian filmmaker Silvio Soldini's "The Tasters" is a fictional version of the story of a woman who worked as Hitler's food taster. But how much of it is true?

The article from DW discusses the upcoming German film "The Tasters," which is inspired by the real-life experiences of women who were forced to taste Adolf Hitler's food for poison during World War II. The film, directed by Christina Hagemann and produced by Alexandra Kordes, focuses on the lives of these young women stationed near Hitler's Wolf's Lair headquarters in East Prussia. The narrative delves into their daily fears of being poisoned, the psychological toll of their role, and their attempts to maintain a semblance of normalcy amidst the war. The film aims to shed light on this lesser-known aspect of history, highlighting the personal stories of these women against the backdrop of the Nazi regime's paranoia and brutality.
