I think my interpretation has always more gravitated towards the side that there's nothing supernatural about it and what gives it that energy is the a the fact that it's cordoned off and abandoned. We can project our spiritual hopes onto it but not with any kind of yeah firmness or yeah right so I think I'm with you too. It sounds so cliche to call it a journey of self discovery but it's like it's just so allegorical in that senselike you're trying to navigate find meaning in life.
It’s the episode that Tamler has been waiting for – a long deep dive into Andrei Tarkovsky’s mysterious masterpiece "Stalker." A writer and professor are led by their guide (Stalker) into a cordoned off “zone” that may have been visited by a meteorite (or aliens) a couple of decades earlier. Their destination – a room in the zone that according to legend grants people their deepest desire, the one that has made them suffer the most. We gush over Tarkovsky’s filmmaking, his use of sound and music, and the richness of the questions this movie raises about meaning, art, delusion, desire, science, and faith.
