Abstrakt

Andrei Tarkovsky is the one who “invented a new language, true to the nature
of film, as it captures life as a reflection, life as a dream,” said Ingmar Bergman.
This article discusses the first feature film directed by Tarkovsky – Ivan’s Childhood.
This deeply spiritual movie includes the most characteristic features and plots found
in Tarkovsky’s works. According to him, film is a way to reach the truth. For this reason,
he attempts to find answers to essential questions: the meaning of life and the condition
of the human spirit.
