Q:
Stalker (1979, Dir. Andrei Tarkovsky)
Three men enter “the Zone,” a forbidden landscape where physics bends and wishes come true. That’s the plot — but the real journey is philosophical, not physical.
Stalker is slow, meditative, and hypnotic — a film about faith disguised as a sci-fi quest. Every rusted pipe and puddle feels alive with meaning.
You don’t watch it — you drift through it. And afterward, everything feels a little less certain.
