Plot.
Moscow, 1930s. A prominent writer's works are suddenly censored by the Soviet state and the premiere of his theatrical play about Pontius Pilate is canceled. He's kicked out of the Soviet Writer's Union, and quickly turns into an outcast with no means to survive. Inspired by Margarita - his lover, he begins working on a new novel in which all the characters are satirically reinterpreted from his life. The novel's central character is Woland - a mystical dark force who visits Moscow to revenge all those who caused the writer's downfall. As the Master sinks himself deeper and deeper into his novel, adding himself and Margarita as characters, he gradually stops noticing as the border between reality and his imagination fades away.

Wiki.
The Master and Margarita (Russian: Мастер и Маргарита) is a Russian fantasy-drama film directed by Michael Lockshin and based on Mikhail Bulgakov's novel of the same name. It stars August Diehl as Woland, a diabolical foreigner who visits Moscow, Yevgeny Tsyganov as the eponymous Master, Yuliya Snigir as Margarita, the Master's mistress and Claes Bang as Pontius Pilate.
The film was shot in 2021, but its release was pushed multiple times because of Russia's invasion into Ukraine and only premiered January 25, 2024. The movie received mostly positive reviews from both film critics and audiances and quickly became the highest-grossing film released with a 18+ content rating ever in Russia and #7 all time box office, with over 2.3 billion rubles, this despite the attacks of Russia's state news and officials against the movie.
