She shares a small apartment with two Siamese cats and her rich collection of great literature. She maintains no close personal relationships aside from those she has with her favorite authors and stories.

In present-day New York, a young thief named Edge breaks into the apartment of Angela, a dying centenarian who turns the tables on him at gunpoint. Holding him captive, she spins a tale that becomes his only way out. The story leaps back a century to the American West and Ottoman-controlled Macedonia, where two outlaw brothers - Luke and Elijah - are torn apart by their love for the same woman, Lilith. Estranged, they end up on opposite sides of a Macedonian uprising. Manchevski refuses to keep the two worlds neatly apart - Angela's gold coins and her words bleed across the century divide, her storytelling actively reshaping the past, and the past giving birth to the present, until the two time-lines mirror and contaminate each other. The result is a fractured, fearless narrative structure that makes Dust one of world cinema's most original and undervalued films.
