LACMA says…

This documentary investigates Tarkovsky’s legacy through encounters with those who collaborated with him. It journeys from Los Angeles to rural Russia—with stops in Florence, for some candid memories of the great filmmaker by his son, and in Stockholm, where Bergman-regular Erland Josephson reminisces about appearing in The Sacrifice, Tarkovsky’s final film—and eventually lands in the forgotten city of Yurevets, where Tarkovsky spent parts of his childhood, including the years during World War II. The film offers a touching, highly personal, and provocative record of the lingering effects of Tarkovsky on an extraordinary range of individuals.
