After going to prison for a crime she didn’t commit, a Filipino woman seeks revenge in Lav Diaz’s class-conscious exploration of personal retribution and uncommon mercy, filmed in startling black-and-white.
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.
