France, 1999, 55’, color

Russian, French, English with Turkish subtitles

Through film clips, journal entries, and personal musings, One Day In the Life of Andrei Arsenevich is renowned French filmmaker Chris Marker's homage to his friend and colleague, Andrei Tarkovsky, who died in 1986. Through close readings of Tarkovsky's films - including rare scenes from his student film and a practically unknown production of Boris Goudonov - Marker attempts to locate Tarkovsky in his work. Parallels drawn by Marker between Tarkovksy's life and films offer an original insight into the reclusive director. With behind-the-scenes footage of Tarkovsky obsessively commanding his entire, and candid moments of Tarkovsky with his friends and family, bedridden but still working on the editing of his final film, this is a personal and loving portrait of the monumental filmmaker.

This film will be screened after "Voyage In Time".
