About Book

ЗАПЕЧАТЛЕННОЕ ВРЕМЯ

★ Translated and published for the first time from the original Russian work ★ He has been carving time all his life, for the time that has passed, consumed or not yet owned ★ As long as you love movies, let's carve time together His movies are like a miracle. He has created a new language that is true to the nature of film, capturing life like a mirror, like a dream. He does not interpret anything, he is just an observer, but he has made his imaging activities reach a superb level. - Ingmar Bergman If we can condense "Carving Time" into a single message, it must be: For any artist and art form, connotation and conscience should precede technique. - Los Angeles Times
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What do people go to the cinema to see? What brings them into a dark room?
For time: for time that has passed, is consumed, or is not yet possessed.
What is the essence of filmmaking? To a certain extent, it can be defined as carving time.
It's like a sculptor facing a piece of marble, knowing exactly what the finished product will look like, and then removing all the unnecessary parts bit by bit.
Filmmakers also remove all unnecessary parts from the huge block of time that contains a vast amount of life facts, leaving only the parts that can become film elements and the parts that can clearly describe the image of the film.
"Sculpting Time" is Tarkovsky's lifelong pursuit of film and art.
