Dust
An impressionistic exploration of Odessa, where the past, the present and the fantasy of three characters merge on the edge of decadence. A portrait of the last remaining Jews in a city which was once a flourishing centre of Yiddish culture. The story of their lives is in many ways the story of the city, now a faded relic of its former self. Esther is eccentric, funny and tragic, and has led a rich life, full of fascinating experiences as well as the torments of war, anti-semitism and communism. She transforms her poverty-stricken room into a salon where, old souls and her lifelong friends, Tanya and Valery, come to life once more.
