Description

In New York, a socialite, Caroline Ferriday, is completely absorbed in her work at the French consulate and the new love that looms on the horizon. But her world changed when Hitler invaded Poland in 1939 and set his sights on France.

Overseas Porridge Kuzmerik sees her carefree youth slipping away irretrievably as she becomes more and more seriously involved in the underground resistance movement in occupied Poland.

In Nazi Germany for the ambitious young doctor Herta Oberheuser a job advertisement is perhaps its way out of a hopeless existence. Once hired, however, she finds herself in a world subject to the male will and the dark secrets of the Nazi regime.

The fates of the three heroines intertwine when the unthinkable happens and Porridge Kuzmerik was imprisoned in the notorious Ravensbrück concentration camp for women. A time of despair and suffering, but also of friendship, nobility and sacrifice. Is there justice and redemption for those from whom war has taken everything?

Inspired by real events and personalities, this is a story of hardship and trial, of crime and retribution, but also of the triumph of the human spirit. The lilac is known to bloom more and more fragrant only after a fierce winter. This is the story of those „lilac“ girls who, in their search for love, freedom or justice - had the power to change history.
