Crownless Queen of the Garden
Alon, the film’s director, revisits a traumatic Purim night in Jerusalem, when he returned to sex work in a park just to afford a Queen Esther costume. Through a fusion of cinematic reenactments, documentary fragments, and a renewed connection to Esther herself, Alon seeks to reclaim control over a painful memory — transforming trauma into meaning, and finding in Purim a path toward redemption and self-understanding.
