France, Belgium. Director: Anne Fontaine. 120 mins. The film explores the story behind one of the most famous works in the history of music, Maurice Ravel’s Boléro.

The mechanic on site, Vahid, recognises Eghbal – as the man he believes tortured him whilst he was in prison.

Although angels are meant to be mere observers, and not to interact physically with the human world, Damiel falls in love with a real-life circus performer. He is now considering giving up his status as an angel and becoming human – that is, mortal. The screenplay for the film was written by the director Wim Wenders together with the Nobel Prize winner in Literature, Peter Handke. The Master and Margarita, Russia, 2025 Director: Michael Lockshin 156 mins 1930s Moscow. A famous writer is censored by the Soviet state: his novel is banned and the premiere of his new play about Pontius Pilate is suddenly cancelled. Within days, he becomes a pariah. Overcome by despair, he begins to write a new novel – a daring satire in which the devil, Woland, arrives in Moscow to exact surreal and poetic revenge on those responsible for the author’s downfall. Although he knows this work can never be published in the Soviet Union, his muse Margarita encourages him to write it anyway, regardless of the consequences. The film interweaves Bulgakov’s novel with his own biography, creating a narrative that unfolds across three parallel timelines: the semi-realistic Moscow of the 1930s, the fantastical future Moscow of the Master’s novel, and Jerusalem in the year 33 AD.
