Film “Master and Margarita”
Premier in January 2024
Moscow in the 1930s. A famous writer on the rise of his career suddenly finds himself at the centre of a literary scandal. The play based on his work is banned, colleagues conspicuously avoid meeting him, and within days he becomes an outcast. Shortly thereafter, he meets Margarita, who becomes his beloved muse. Inspired by her love and support, the writer embarks on a new novel, where the characters happen to be his acquaintances, and the main character is the mysterious Woland, modeled after a recent acquaintance, a foreigner. The writer immerses himself in the world of his novel and gradually ceases to notice how fiction and reality intertwine into one.
