The Mystical Cinematic World of Andrei Tarkovsky and Rudolf Steiner's Anthroposophy, Part One
Part One: Andrei Tarkovsky: Exploring the Life and Films of a Cinematic Genius
Dive into the life and art of Andrei Tarkovsky, one of the most influential filmmakers of the 20th century. In this first part of our two-part audio essay, we explore Tarkovsky's early life, his cinematic journey, and the profound themes that define his films. From his childhood in rural Russia to his rise as a visionary director, we examine the personal and historical influences that shaped his work. Discover the major works of Tarkovsky, including "Ivan's Childhood," "Andrei Rublev," "Solaris," "Mirror," "Stalker," and "The Sacrifice." As we delve into his unique cinematic style and thematic preoccupations, we also begin to uncover the spiritual and philosophical underpinnings of his art, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of Rudolf Steiner's influence in part two.
