Andrei Tarkovsky was a Soviet Russian filmmaker who lived from 1932 to 1986, known for slow, meditative, visually poetic films concerned with memory, faith and time, including Andrei Rublev, Solaris, Mirror and Stalker. He worked frequently in conflict with Soviet censors over the content and pacing of his films, and emigrated from the USSR in the early 1980s, dying in exile near Paris. He is regarded as one of the most influential art-film directors of the twentieth century.
