“This exploration of the unreliability of reality and the power of the human unconscious, this great examination of the limits of rationalism and the perverse power of even the most ill-fated love, needs to be seen as widely as possible”
—Salman Rushdie

Andrei Tarkovsky’s landmark of philosophical science fiction follows a psychologist dispatched to a space station outside the fictional planet of Solaris. The remaining crew has gone insane and the rules of consciousness seem to break down, leaving him to confront his innermost memories and desires—not to mention a certain ghost from his past. Made in response to Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, Solaris draws us into its mysterious orbit as it explores not the wonders of a brave new world but the far more complex enigmas of the human mind.
