Kino immer anders
The last masterpiece by the renowned Russian director tells the story of Alexander, a philosopher and former theater actor. On his birthday his family learns of an imminent nuclear war that could cause devastating harm to the world. In a desperate act of faith, Alexander promises to make a great sacrifice to save the world…
A very strong aesthetic and the calm direction in the impressive landscapes create a meditative atmosphere in which the symbolic depth of the plot and Tarkovsky’s poetic narrative can fully unfold. The Sacrifice is narrated with a poetic intensity and symbolism that not only invites the audience to follow Alexander’s inner journey but also to explore the depths of the human soul.
