Andrei Rublev / Soviet Union / 1969

Andrei Tarkovsky raised the bar so incredibly high with this film, even with his own work, that it’s difficult to conceive of another film that begins, develops and culminates with such a sustained level of sublimity. Of course, the film follows the famous medieval Russian icon painter, Andrei Rublov, as his wanderings through a turbulent period of Russian history becomes a moving meditation on the redemption of the human soul. There’s no other way to put it, frankly. A historical epic – if you must, but watch and experience much more.
