The books deal with the presence of an alien intelligences to which humans are confronted: they don’t understand who or what it is. Tarkovski offers a mystical and spiritual vision in his movies.

We will asking how the director does bring a new interpretation to these books through cinema. How does it transmit his own vision of space and time?
