The Girl in the Red Coat: A Memoir
- -15%
The woman whose life inspired the character of the red-clad child in "Schindler's List" recounts her harrowing childhood under the Nazis and in Communist Poland to her career in the theater and film.
As a child in German-occupied Poland, Roma Ligocka was known for the bright strawberry-red coat she wore against a tide of gathering darkness. Fifty years later, Roma, an artist living in Germany, attended a screening of Steven Spielberg?s Schindler?s List, and instantly knew that ?the girl in the red coat??the only splash of color in the film?was her. Thus began a harrowing journey into the past, as Roma Ligocka sought to reclaim her life and put together the pieces of a shattered childhood.
