Synopsis:
After the murder of the Russian emperor Peter III, who was succeeded by empress Katarina, Satan decides that the balance between good and evil on Earth has been disturbed. Therefore, he sends his representative to Earth - the teacher Farfa, who bears an unusual resemblance to the deceased Peter III. His mission is to take over power from the old duke of Montenegro, and then to get his throne back in Russia as Peter III. The film is based on the legend of the self-proclaimed emperor Šćepan Mali, who ruled Montenegro for a few years in the second half of the 18th century. It is a sort of a fantasy film, mixing elements of trash and camp. It won several awards.
