Saturday Matinee Classics
Solaris
Starts at 11 AM!
Ground control has been receiving mysterious transmissions from the three remaining residents of the Solaris space station. When cosmonaut and psychologist Kris Kelvin is dispatched to investigate, he experiences the same strange psychological phenomena that afflict the Solaris crew, sending him on a voyage into the darkest recesses of his consciousness. He soon discovers that the water on the planet is a type of brain which brings out repressed memories and obsessions. With Solaris,the legendary Russian filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky created a brilliantly original science-fiction epic that challenges our conceptions about love, truth, and humanity itself.
1972, 169 minutes, Rated PG, Directed by Andrei Tarkovsky
