In this beautiful transposition of the biblical story, Amos Gitai updates the passionate tale about the ruler of a great and sprawling kingdom who chooses as his queen a beautiful peasant girl named Esther. But when Esther hides her Jewish identity from her husband, a vicious cycle of revenge begins.

Originally released as a motion picture in 1985. Special features: full chapterization, pre-production and production slide-shows, and the featurette "Amos Gitai : images of exile".
