Description
On a space station orbiting the ocean-covered planet Solaris, cosmonaut Chris
Kelvin arrives to investigate a series of mysterious and bizarre occurrences
among the crew. What he discovers are supernatural phenomena that cause
repressed and haunting memories to take on physical form, including that of
Kelvin's late wife. Through her, Kelvin attempts to communicate with the forces
responsible which appear to be emanating from the mysterious planet itself.
Director Andrei Tarkovsky transcends the normal conventions of the science
fiction genre resulting in a moving and unsettling vision of memory and
humanity, which has often been compared to Kubrick's 2001: Space Odyssey. This
DVD presents the film on 2 discs with a fully restored and remastered picture
and soundtrack.
