When: Tuesday, August 14, 6:45 PM
Where: Click the link below to find out!
Event Description: Andrei Tarkovsky's final Soviet film, Stalker (1979), is a long, intense, enigmatic, and darkly poetic fable based on a science-fiction novel by the brothers Strugatsky. In the film's story, "a writer and a scientist follow a shaven-headed 'stalker' into forbidden territory, a dangerous wilderness known as the Zone," a place, it is rumored, that has the power to grant one's innermost wishes. The film's post-apocalyptic landscape and electro-acoustic soundtrack make this one of the director's most visually and sonically arresting works.
Stalker is playing at the Pacific Film Archive in Berkeley at 7 pm as part of the PFA's Russian Fantastik Cinema festival.
