STALKER

New restorarion produced by Mosfilm from a 2K scan of the negative. A Janus Films release.

"Hang on in to the ending, where a plain declaration of love and a vision of pure magic at least point the way to redemption. As always, Tarkovsky conjures images like you've never seen before; and as a journey to the heart of darkness, it's a good deal more persuasive than Coppola's." - Time Out

"Cinephiles, rejoice! A visually stunning science-fiction classic just got more striking." -The Verge

Twenty years ago a falling object decimated a provincial Russian town, and those who later went near the crash site--now known as The Zone--disappeared. Access is strictly prohibited, but outsiders can still get in with the help of a "stalker." One of the most immersive and rarefied experiences in the history of cinema, STALKER is a metaphysical journey through an enigmatic post-apocalyptic landscape..

“In all the science-fiction films I’ve seen, the filmmakers force the viewer to examine the details of the material structure of the future…For a true work of art, the fake must be eliminated.” -Andrei Tarkovsky
