\u201cAndrei Tarkovsky\u2019s magnum opus offers a stark, spectacular reminder of what it means to be human.\u201d Little White Lies<\/i><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tarkovsky\u2019s adaptation of a 1961 novel by Stanislaw Lem. Psychologist Kelvin is sent to a space station orbiting the mysterious planet Solaris to investigate puzzling messages sent back to earth by an earlier mission. On arrival he finds one crew member dead and two more deeply disturbed by strange occurrences on the station.<\/p>\n

\n
\u201cTarkovsky\u2019s speculative visions enfold the mysteries of death and rebirth, the lost paradise of childhood, the power of art to define identity, the menace of science as destructive vanity.\u201d Richard Brody, New Yorker<\/i><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
