Las mujeres de la casa de las lilas

Synopsis of Las mujeres de la casa de las lilas

September 1939. Three women in different parts of the world experience the beginning of World War II in very different ways. In the United States, Caroline Ferriday works as a volunteer at the French consulate in New York, helping those fleeing the war in Europe. In Poland, young Kasia Kuzmerick must mature quickly after the SS arrest her father. And in Germany, Herta Oberheuser, an ambitious doctor, agrees to work for the Nazi regime without suspecting that she is entering a cruel territory. Their stories intertwine when Caroline and Kasia decide to seek justice for the forgotten women of the Ravensbrück concentration camp. This story, based on real people and events, demonstrates that even in the worst situations, altruism and generosity flourish.
