Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker on Blu-ray and DVD in August

21 July 2016

In a future world that has been seemingly ravaged by war and poverty there exists a myth of hope amongst the people – a forbidden place known only as the Zone, the heart of which, if reached, grants one’s innermost desires. Two men, a writer and professor, hire someone known as a Stalker, a guide who can navigate the treacherous and confounding path that leads them to the centre of the Zone.

Stalker was instantly considered one of the most definitive artistic contemplations of human aspiration and the ambition we employ to achieve it.
