 Mephistopheles, also called Mephisto, familiar spirit of the Devil in late settings of the Faust legend. It is likely that the name Mephistopheles was invented for the historical Johann Georg Faust (c. 1480-c. 1540) by the anonymous author of the first Faustbuch (1587). A newcomer to the hellish hierarchy, Mephistopheles never became an integral part of the lore of magic and demonology that preceded him by thousands of years. He is only mentioned in the magic manuals attributed to Faust. He essentially belongs to literature.



In English playwright Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus, Mephistopheles achieves tragic greatness as a fallen angel, torn between satanic pride and dark despair. In the drama Faust (Part I, 1808; Part II, 1832), by J.W. von Goethe, he is callous, cynical and witty, a subtler creation perhaps but certainly a lighter one. At the end of Goethe's drama, Faust's soul escapes from Mephistopheles as he makes undue advances to the angels who have come to rescue her from her.

Linnar Priimägi is a prominent and sometimes provocative figure on the Estonian cultural scene. A writer, teacher, actor, director, literary critic, academic, government advisor, television presenter, poet and newspaper columnist, he has worked as artistic director of the Vanemuine theater in Tartu and professor of Media and Advertising at Tallinn University. With a taste for vintage brandy and pristine white clothes, Priimägi is a colorful kind of public intellectual, untroubled by modesty and fond of sharing his erudite, acerbic opinions of him. All of which makes him a potentially rich subject for director Manfred Vainokivi's's hour-long documentary Mephistopheles, which world premieres this month as part of the Baltic competition section at Black Nights Film Festival in Tallinn.


Chosen by Priimägi himself, the title of Vainokivi ’s film playfully suggests a kinship with the demonic charmer in Goethe ’s Faust, one of his own stage productions of him. On screen, the silver-haired 66-year-old appears more mischievous than evil, though he clearly has no reservations about playing the arrogant egotistical diva. “Of course your movie is not going to work,” he tells Vainokivi. “I’m just too complicated… your mind understands me no more than 10 per cent.” Lightly sprinkled with irony, such pompous posturing is all part of Priimägi's performative public persona, and it can be highly amusing at times. He berates the “bumpkins” and “halfwits” who control television, cheerfully admits that other people bore him, and trashes Estonia itself as a dismal nation with no shame or honour.
