Synopsis

Freely inspired by Goethe's story, Alexander Sokurov radically reinterprets the myth. Faust is a thinker, a rebel and a pioneer, but also an anonymous human made of flesh and blood driven by inner impulses, greed and lust.
After Moloch (Hitler), Taurus (Lenine) and The Sun (Hirohito), "Faust" is the last part of Sokurov's tetralogy.
