Aleksandr Kaidanovsky, Alisa Freindlikh, Anatoly Solonitsyn, Nikolai GrinkoOriginally produced by Janus Films (The Criterion Collection) in 1979.Andrei Tarkovsky’s final Soviet feature is a metaphysical journey through an enigmatic postapocalyptic landscape, and a rarefied cinematic experience like no other. A hired guide—the Stalker—leads a writer and a professor into the heart of the Zone, the restricted site of a long-ago disaster, where the three men eventually zero in on the Room, a place rumored to fulfill one’s most deeply held desires. Adapting a science-fiction novel by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky, Tarkovsky created an immersive world with a wealth of material detail and a sense of organic atmosphere. A religious allegory, a reflection of contemporaneous political anxieties, a meditation on film itself—STALKER envelops the viewer by opening up a multitude of possible meanings. Winner of a Prize of the Ecumenical Jury at the **Cannes Film Festival**. Official Selection at the **Venice Film Festival**. *"Arguably Andrei Tarkovsky's finest masterpiece, the Russian director's 1979 film is the culmination of a career-long preoccupation with memory, trauma and the relationship between subjective perception and physical reality." - Christopher Machell, **CineVue***Mode of access: World Wide Web.- Subjects: Feature films.; Science fiction.; Foreign films.; Motion Pictures.; Drama.; Motion pictures.;
