Opis

""Invisible in israel"" is a story of a young woman's life in a brothel in Israel. Zukhra has no more reason to stay in her former republic of USSR, but it has taken her a while before she finally decides to leave. According to Olga, an acquaintance, Zukhra's beauty and youthfulness will be the young woman's ticket to a much better life. Zukhra, however, is reluctant to engage herself in prostitution, especially in a foreign country like Israel. But she sees no hope in the poverty-stricken land of USSR; this, along with her family's abandonment, persuades Zukhra to gamble what little luck she has and fly to Israel. Taking on a new identity as Magdalene, Zukhra reinvents herself and becomes one of the most precious women in the brothel she is in.

Taking on a new identity as Magdalene, Zukhra reinvents herself and becomes one of the most precious women in the brothel she is in. Being a paid sex-slave might not gain her respect and admiration from people outside her world, but for those who know her good enough, Zukhra or Magdalene is an extraordinary woman who gives a new and different meaning to the brothel and those who work in it.
