Dr Nicholas Rush Cooper, a geographer and former Chernobyl guide, Sophie Fiennes, a filmmaker, Larushka Ivan-Zadeh, a film critic, and Konstantin Von Eggert, a Russian journalist, discuss Tarkovsky's Stalker. They explore the Zone's uncanny ties to Chernobyl, the film's soundscape and hypnotic long takes, its troubled production and toxic locations, and the film's gendered world and ambiguous climax.
