Pilatus und Andere [Piłat i inni]

The novel "The Master and Margarita" has been adapted for the screen numerous times. The first movie was made by the famous Polish director Andrzej Wajda, who in 1971 directed the movie "Pilate and Others". In 1972 the Italo-Yugoslavian movie "The Master and Margarita", directed by Alexandr Petrovich, came out. In 1988, Maciej Wojtyszko, also Polish, adapted the book for television. In 1994 another version was shot by Yuri Kara; it was shelved. And now we are proud to present the new film directed by Vladimir Bortko.
Master and Margarita (2005) is a Menippean film based on the eponymous book by Mikhail Bulgakov. Set in Moscow under Stalin and in Jerusalem under Pilate, it has several story-lines where history, religion and politics are intertwined. The sacrifices of Master (Galibin), a talented author of a manuscript about the biblical Pontius Pilate, and Master's muse - Margarita (Kovalchuk), are paralleled by the biblical story of Ieshua in Ierushalaim, and the deceit of the cowardly ambiguous Pilate (Lavrov), whose character alludes to a Soviet leader. The reality is distorted by Satan Woland (Basilashvili), and his lieutenants, who are manipulating public events and people's lives by pushing the buttons of human weaknesses and sins. Margarita taps into Woland's power, trying to save Master. The character of Master is autobiographical, burning of his manuscript alludes to what Bulgakov himself did under threats from the Soviet authorities.
