 color, 161 min.\nWith Aleksandr Kaidanovsky, Anatoly Solonitsyn\nRussian 
 with English subtitles\n\nConceived in an epic form, Tarkovsky’s film 
 represents the peak of the Russian director’s cinematic career, 
 exemplifying what he called a “poetic, philosophical, and spiritual 
 cinema.” Two disenchanted intellectuals wish to explore the Zone, a 
 mysterious region at the center of which a room, said to offer knowledge of 
 one’s most secret desires, is located. The men hire a stalker for their 
 guide, whose obsession with the Zone takes on religious and mystical 
 overtones.\n\nFilm Notes Courtesy of Harvard Film Archive\n\n
