''Little Odessa'' is a 1994 American movie about the Russian-Jewish immigrant community in Brighton Beach and the bad things that happen to one particular DysfunctionalFamily. It consists of Arkady, the adulterous father who makes ends meet working at a newsstand; his wife, dying of a brain tumor; and the younger son Reuben, a soft-spoken, clever boy intent on cutting school, smoking weed, and watching movies. There is also an elder son, Joshua (TimRoth), who is a hitman for the [[TheMafiya Russian Mafia]] and was therefore banished from home. He has to return to Brooklyn to off an Iranian jeweller, and awkwardly tries to make peace with his family in the process. [[{{Tragedy}} It does not go well]].
