Andreiv Rublev charts the life of the great icon painter through a turbulent period of 15th Century Russian history, a period marked by endless fighting between rival Princes and by Tatar invasions.

“Andrei Rublev is the most Russian of films, emblematic of what everyone finds so fascinating and so maddening in the way Russians do things”

"Prospective film makers still study Andrei Rublev today to see a master at work. While Tarkovsky’s use of lighting, fog and shadows are reminiscent of the Japanese master Akira Kurosawa, Tarkovsky adds his own genius in arranging dozens of actors and extras’ individual parts into a single, extended shot. The single shot scene involves the Tartars showing up to rape and loot another Russian village. Here Tarkovsky’s work did not escape controversy, as several animals were killed in the course of the filming, including a horse that was shot by the crew and then impaled on screen by a Tartar warrior.

In spite of Tarkovsky’s depiction of the Russian Orthodox Church and the boyars as cruel, we can see why Soviet censors cut twenty minutes from Andrei Rublev and almost banned the picture. The film is profoundly spiritual, anti-materialistic, and its heroes are all suspicious of worldly authority. After Tarkovsky completed filming in 1966, Soviet censors vacillated for five years on whether to permit the film to be shown at all. Finally, in 1971, they did allow it to be shown in the USSR. But the world did not get to see the film Tarkovsky envisioned, all 205 minutes of it, until 2004."

Description
Voyage in Time (Italian: Tempo di Viaggio) is a 63-minute feature documentary that documents the travels in Italy of director Andrei Tarkovsky in preparation for the making of his film Nostalghia.

Tarkovsky, a Russian, who had often expressed his strong spiritual and emotional connection to Russia through his films, left the country in 1983 never to return.

He came to believe that films should be made in the style of a documentary. However, Tarkovsky's idea of a documentary is in many respects very different to that generally understood by television networks, especially in the Western world. Indeed, the slow and captivating progression of images, places and people in Voyage in Time is profound and artistic, and instead of communicating a political message or presenting a factual account, the short film quietly and with great sensitivity observes the process by which the mind becomes attuned to a new environment in which the person finds his niche. Watching the film feels like walking around a gallery, as one slowly becomes more sensitive to the infinite variety and subtleties of the paintings hanging on the wall and the patterns in the mind of the observer begin to form.
