On a hot spring day in the 1930s, the Devil comes to Moscow. His havoc-making visit intersects with the love story of a writer (Master) and a married woman (Margarita). The Master is struggling under censorship to make his voice heard. An accidental meeting on a street begins a tale of devotion, sacrifice and love as the pair of lovers gain spiritual strength even when threatened with great danger.
