East Germany. 1989.
A young woman.
An impossible choice.
Freedom, or a life she could no longer accept.
At twenty years old, Karlina leaves behind her family, friends and everything familiar to make a dangerous journey towards freedom.
But reaching the West is only the beginning.
Inspired by real events from Katrin Costa’s life, The Girl in the Purple Jacket is a story of courage, freedom, love and resilience — and the strength it takes to choose your own path.
