Serebrennikov's new film "The Disappearance of Josef Mengele" (Disappearance, 2025) is based on the novel by Olivier Geze about the most famous Nazi doctor who conducted experiments on Auschwitz prisoners. The main role in the film was played by August Diehl, who embodied the image of Woland in Mikhail Lokshin's film "The Master and Margarita".
