of contemporany cinema, a good actor and writer too, without questions, a
creator of deeply felt poetic
ruminations on life,
love.
I dont know if this piece belong to a something called gender in this space, but this is cinema author, for many people a film to understand the limit in the art in a deep philosophical questioning.
In the film, the world has been ravaged by some terrible (nuclear?) atrocity that
has
left
much of the country segregated. Because of a strong chance of infection, the fall-out area
of
this accident has been labelled \"the zone\" and is now heavily guarded by police
and
government officials. It is said that there is a sanctum hidden deep within the zone
that was formed (perhaps) by mystical extraterrestrials (or whatever it was that
caused
such devastation) that will grant those brave enough to discover it their
ultimate
wish. This, of course, leads to curiosity, and those who desire entrance into
the
zone
must seek the aid of the stalkers... men on the fringes of society, familiar with
the
workings of the zone, and courageous (or desperate?) enough to smuggle in
\"tourists\"
for a substantial fee. The stalker here is a classic Tarkovsky character - a world
away from the typical hero (or anti-hero) that you would
find in most
sci-fi films - a man of great sadness and bouts of philosophical reflection
who, when not risking his life by entering the zone,
lives in a
dilapidated shack with his dejected wife and psychic
daughter.
