"Der Idiot" gehört zu den bekanntesten Romanen Fjodor Dostojewskis. Er wurde von dem Autor in Genf 1867 begonnen, in Mailand 1868 beendet und erschien erstmals von Januar 1868 bis Februar 1869 in einer Zeitschrift. Die Geschichte des Fürsten Myschkin, der für ungefähr ein halbes Jahr sein Schweizer Refugium verlässt und in die Petersburger Gesellschaft (und in was für eine!) gerät, zählt zu den ganz großen Werken der Weltliteratur.

Director David Fishelson transforms Dostoyevsky's The Brothers Karamazov and The Idiot into spellbinding drama that illuminates both titanic novels.

The men have plenty to fight over, including the alluring Grushenka.
