| | Stalker | |
Description
Deep within the Zone, a bleak and devastated forbidden landscape, lies a mysterious room with the power to grant the deepest wishes of those strong enough to make the hazardous journey there. Desperate to reach it, a scientist and a writer approach the Stalker, one of the few able to navigate the Zone`s menacing terrain, and begin a dangerous trek into the unknown. Tarkovsky`s second foray into science fiction after `Solaris` is a surreal and disturbing vision of the future. Hauntingly exploring man`s dreams and desires, and the consequences of realising them, `Stalker`, adapted from Arkady & Boris Strugatsky`s novel `Roadside Picnic`, has been described as one of the greatest science fiction films of all time.
