Summary: | In Andrei Tarkovski’s Sacrifice the world is threatened by an apocalyptic III World War. At the same time, family relations of the main character are immersed in a crisis that seems final.

The director of the film probably achieved that unintentionally, because of his poetic and spiritual interests. |
