Content classification not on file. Please see the OFLC website for more information.

A man in his forties is going to die and remembers his past. His childhood, his mother, the war, personal moments but things that also tell the story of all the Russian nation... This cinematic expression of the author's reflections is one of the best films of Russian director Andrei Tarkovsky. Its working title was "White, White Day". Quoted in the film are some of the verses by the remarkable poet Arseny Tarkovsky, the director's father. The director mixes flashbacks, historical footage and original poetry to illustrate the reminiscences of a dying man about his childhood during World War II, adolescence, and a painful divorce in his family.
