Our take

It’s a bold director that remakes a film by Andrei Tarkovsky. Aleksey Balabanov’s final feature reimagines the maestro’s existential epic, Stalker. The journey here is a search for happiness, en route to a finale centred on a moving Balabanov cameo that caps his career with poignancy and grace.
