Nel 538 a.C. Assuero, re dei Persiani, sta tenendo un banchetto celebrativo nella città di Susa quando la moglie Vasti si rifiuta di mostrare la sua bellezza agli ospiti. L'episodio spinge Assuero a ripudiare Vasti e a cercare nuova moglie tra le giovani vergini del regno. La sua scelta ricade su Adàssa, la cugina che lo scriba giudeo Mardocheo ha cresciuto come una figlia. Nascondendo le proprie origini e facendosi chiamare Ester, Adàssa troverà una via di uscita a un editto reale che decreta lo sterminio degli ebrei.

Esther / 1986

Ahasverus, king of Persia and Media, puts aside Vashti and makes Esther his queen, choosing her among maidens in a kingdom stretching from India to Ethiopia. Esther, using information from Mordecai, her uncle and patron, saves the king from assassination. Haman, the king's favorite, is miffed when Mordecai won't bow to him, so he orders death to all Jews in the kingdom, under the seal of the king. Esther pleads for her people, and Mordecai is in turn given license to make his own edict under the king's seal. Mordecai loses sight of his original intention, and bloody murder ensues. Purim annually celebrates the story. At the end of the film, the actors comment.
