Le Maître de la taïga (en russe : Хозяин тайги, Khoziaïn taïgui) est un film soviétique réalisé par Vladimir Nazarov en 1968, l'adaptation de la nouvelle Le Pouvoir de la taïga de Boris Mojaïev qui signe également le scénario. L'histoire se déroule dans un coin retiré de la taïga où le lieutenant de milice soviétique Vassili Seriojkine mène une enquête pour vol. Le personnage de Seriojkine apparait ensuite dans Disparition de témoin (1971) et Enquête préliminaire (1978), tous deux réalisés à la demande des spectateurs.

A 19-year-old youth, JR (Brenton Thwaites) is sent to an Australian correctional facility for six months as punishment for a minor crime. During his first few days at the prison, he finds his cellmate is being sexually abused by another group of prisoners led by a man named Dave. JR also comes across the charismatic Brendan Lynch (Ewan McGregor), Australia's public enemy #1 and a notorious armed robber. Lynch is playing a game of correspondence chess when a passing JR points out an unseen checkmate against Lynch, demonstrates the move, and is dismissed. Later, JR finds his cellmate sharpening a shiv with the intention of defending himself against Dave. When Dave and his gang move to attack the cellmate, JR prevents the attack by initiating a fight. Lynch scolds JR for meddling in other people's affairs, and soon after, JR's cellmate is once again sexually assaulted. His cellmate attempts to commit suicide, directing Dave's focus towards JR. When Dave and his gang try to rape JR, Lynch and his men, Sterlo (Matt Nable) and Merv (Eddie Baroo), rescue JR and kill Dave. In exchange for Lynch's protection during JR's sentence, JR agrees to perform tasks for Lynch outside of prison.
