[1] The film portrays a Jewish girl, Esther, who is chosen as the new queen consort to King Xerxes I of Persia and her efforts to stop evil Lord Haman's plot to exterminate the Jews.

[citation needed] In Shushan, the capital of the Persian Empire, in the year 482 BC, a Jew named Mordecai tells his young cousin, Hadassah, about a strange dream he had.

There is an air of great excitement, as King Xerxes is passing through the marketplace, en route to the feast he is hosting in his palace.

While at the feast, Haman, one of the kings advisers displays anger that Mordecai is there, saying that it would give him great pleasure to see all the Jews eradicated.

In a conversation with Mordecai, Esther expresses that she would have acted the same way that Vashti did, reminding him that even if the king commanded them to break the sabbath, they would disobey him.

Haman, in a private meeting with Gasparif declares outrage over the kings decision, and tells him that he will pay dearly for causing this situation.

Esther is initially hesitant, but Mordecai warns her that if Haman's daughter were to become queen, it would be a travesty for the Jewish people.

Haman returns to his home, and speaks furiously to his wife, Zaresh, saying that Mordecai will ruin his plans.

Esther beseeches God, saying that she has a great challenge ahead of her, and begs Him to give her answers.

Xerxes tells Sardar that he will go to eavesdrop on their conversations, in order to figure out their true intentions.

Haman returns to his house in a fury, and tells Zaresh that he will wage a war against Mordecai and his people.

Haman returns home enraged, and tells his wife that he will find a way to show the Jews as treasonous, and have them and Mordecai eradicated.

Esther tells Judith to ask all the Jews to fast on her behalf, for since the king did not summon her, she might be put to death upon her unannounced arrival.

Haman returns to his home, giddy that all of his plans are going well, and that he is the only other person who is invited to Esther's feast.

Esther beseeches the king, telling him that there is a great enemy in his palace, because Haman has ordered the slaughter of her and her people.

Mordecai is appointed as the new prime minister, and a feast is thrown for the Jews to celebrate their newfound freedom.
