Tarkovsky’s Terrain Vague: Nomadic Subjectivity and Interspecies Utterance in Solaris and Stalker

Abstract: 

This paper considers the nomadic subject in relation to the encounter of human and non-human characters in Tarkovsky’s films Solaris and Stalker. A dialog of becoming emerges from the margins, shifting expectations for memory and communion, evoking a semantics of multiplicity.
