Nostalgia
Tarkovsky's unforgettably haunting film, his first to be made outside Russia, explores the melancholy of the expatriate through the film's protagonist, Gorchkov, his beautiful Italian interpreter. Gorchakov is visited by memories of Russia and of his wife and children, and he encounters the local mystic, who sets him a challenging task. The film is filled with a series of mysterious and extraordinary images, all of which collapse into a miraculous whole in the film's final shot. As in all Tarkovsky's films, nature, the elements of fire and water, music, painting and poetry all play a major role.
Tempo di Viaggio
This rarely seen documentary, shot on the film's set, gives a fascinating insight into the making of 'Nostalgia'. It shows his wide-ranging discussions with his Italian co-writer, Tonino Guerra - Antononi's regular scriptwriter - and the hunt for suitable locations that might embody his vision of the film.
Tarkovsky in Nosalgia
Donatella Baglivo's documentary, shot on the film's set, gives a fascinating insight into the making of 'Nostalgia' and includes interviews with Tarkovsky, the cast and crew.
