Der Meister und Margarita

In the organizer's words:

Moscow in the 1930s: A famous writer (Evgeniy Tsyganov) finds himself in the middle of a scandal. His novel is banned, and shortly afterwards the theater premiere of his play is canceled. In just a few days, he becomes an outcast in the USSR. Inspired by this misfortune, the writer begins work on a new novel in which Moscow is visited by a mysterious foreigner named Woland (August Diehl). Woland's initial aim is to bring to justice all those who have wronged the writer. He and his quirky entourage do this in a way that is as comical as it is frightening. At the same time, the writer falls madly in love with Margarita (Yulia Snigir). But Margarita is married and cannot leave her husband. With increasing despair, the writer loses touch with reality and begins to believe that only Woland can give the writer and Margarita the chance to be together.
