Andrei Tarkovsky s finaI Soviet feature is a metaphysicaI journey through an enigmatic postapocaIyptic Iandscape, and a rarefied cinematic experience Iike no other. A hired guide the Stalker Ieads a writer and a scientist into the heart of the Zone, the restricted site of a Iong-ago disaster, where the three men eventuaIIy zero in on the Room, a place rumored to fulfiIl one s most deeply heId desires. Adapting a science-fiction novel by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky, Tarkovsky created an immersive world with a wealth of material detaiI and a sense of organic atmosphere. A religious allegory, a refIection of contemporaneous poIitical anxieties, a meditation on film itseIf Stalker enveIops the viewer by opening up a multitude of possible meanings.
