"Purpur" is an experimental look at gender issues in the film business and tells the story of a film character who rebels against an outdated image of women and a discriminatory system.

Isana is the fictional main character of a film production. She continuously receives instructions in the form of script pages that dictate how she is to behave in each of the next scenes. But she wants to break out of the classic, romantic concept of the love story, the life that has been prescribed for her, and determine it for herself. Invisibly, the pressure of successful commercial exploitation lies on the production, which threatens to fail through Isana's rebellion. So, in addition to the conflict between the film characters, there is also a conflict between the creators of Isana and her world, the director and the producer. Driven by existential fears, all eventually become perpetrators but also victims of an exploitative and marginalized power system.
