This movie is based on Mikhail Bulgakov's novel of the same name. It became the highest-grossing movie released with an 18+ content rating ever in Russia.
"In 1930s Moscow, a prominent writer's works were suddenly censored by the Soviet state, and the premiere of his theatrical play about Pontius Pilate was cancelled for ideological reasons. He is expelled from the Union of Soviet Writers 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 Soviet Moscow as a tourist and avenges all those who caused the writer's downfall.
As the writer 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."
