About
A hitman returns to Brighton Beach for a Russian mafia job and comes face to face with the family he left behind.
Joshua Shapira (Tim Roth) is a hitman for the Russian mafia in Brooklyn and has long been estranged from his Jewish immigrant family from the Soviet Union, especially his father, Arkady Shapira (Maximilian Schell), who objects to his criminal life. Joshua's mother, Irina Shapira (Vanessa Redgrave), is seriously ill, and his teenage brother, Reuben Shapira (Edward Furlong), endures Arkady's emotional and physical abuse. Joshua returns to Brighton Beach, the Brooklyn neighbourhood known as Little Odessa, to carry out a new contract: the killing of an Iranian jeweller. He stays in a hotel, and his presence soon becomes known. An old friend, Sasha (David Vadim), spots him, and Reuben later visits him at the hotel. His former lover, Alla Shustervich (Moira Kelly), keeps her distance.
