Movie Info & Cast
Synopsis
In the dark karaoke rooms of Los Angeles's Koreatown stripmalls, Kasie works as a doumi girl, a young hostess paid to cater to rich businessmen's capricious whims. As she struggles to hide her sorrow through soju- and MDMA-fueled nights, her mind is focused on one thing: earning enough tips to continue providing for her bedridden father. When her father's caretaker unexpectedly quits, Kasie seeks help from her estranged brother, and the siblings are forced to reconnect and reconcile the suppressed trauma that lead to their separation.

Verified Review
Heartbreaking and hopeful look at life in Koreatown and two siblings journey to survive and find themselves.

Ms. Purple is the kind of low-budget film, with inexpensive-looking slo-mo effects and an overwhelming score (the filmmakers anticipate any and all requests that the violins be cued) one usually sees only in local film festivals.

Ms. Purple is a gorgeous film about one of the worst moments of many people’s lives, but isn’t the act of living just learning how to survive these irreplaceable losses?
