Doubtful
While googling the net for finding films based on The Master and Margarita, you may also find the movie The Master and Margarita - The Ball at Satan's, produced by a certain Sergey Pryanishnikov in 2002. It's a full length film (119 minutes), using elements of Bulgakov's novel to link quite vulgar porn scenes to each other. For reasons of decency, we're not presenting this movie on our website.
Fragments
The selected fragments on this page are ordered following the chronology of the scenes in the novel and they are completed with images of the sources which Bugakov consulted and to which he refers, like the opera's Aïda of Giuseppe Verdi and Faust of Charles Gounod, and the vaudeville Lev Gurytsj Sinitsjkin of Dmitri Timofeyevich Lensky. You can also see some short animation movies like, for instance, Margarita, directed by Svetlana Petrova and Natalya Berezovaya.
You can use the menu on the right of this page to judge how the different directors presented some key scenes from The Master and Margarita.
