An unknown time, an unnamed country, some people in search of truth, and stalkers who accompany them on the journey… These are the elements of a mysterious and fantastic expedition presented to us by the Russian director Andrei Tarkovski, a filmmaker described by another, Ingmar Bergman, as “perfection”. Stalker is a film in which cinema and philosophy embrace each other.
