Story of Ester - the movie

Cinematic storytelling powered by Moviepedia.

A lively, contemporary, funny, and moving musical for the whole family, bringing to life the classic story of Esther (Rinat Gabay), who was crowned queen in place of Vashti (Ruslana Rodina). Through her wisdom and courage, and with the help of her uncle Mordechai the Jew (Guy Friedman), she succeeds in saving her people from the evil decree of Haman (Udi Gotshalk) and restoring peace to the kingdom of Ahasuerus (Aviad Bentov). The celebrations of joy and victory turn into a grand carnival of happiness, costumes, and laughter, and have since been known as the holiday of Purim.
