The film is named "Nostalghia" because it covers Andrey Arsenyevich Tarkovsky's memories of his hometown
. When Andrey Arsenyevich Tarkovsky was filming "Nostalghia", the Soviet authorities had banned him from filming, and the director had to leave his 11-year-old son. Going to Italy for filming work also led to his son being taken hostage by the Soviet government. The director’s content in the Russian part of the filmwas also set up in a small village called Otricoli in central Italy, which took two months (because the director asked for the set to be exactly the same as his house in the Soviet country , He took a Polaroid photo of that house with him.) This part was all shot with black and white film
. After the filming was completed, Andrey Arsenyevich Tarkovsky immediately declared exile, and the film finally missed the Cannes Film Festival because of the obstruction and destruction of the Soviet authorities in every possible way

It's homesickness that can't go back, and faith that can't be guessed. These two emotions seem to be ingeniously combined. Except for some still amazing scene images and god-like scheduling, I don't like the way this film is handled. Eugenia’s explicit symbol of desire, Dominic’s speech and Andre’s last difficult lighting of candles, are extremely formalistic, almost spreading the truth on the screen, deviating from the aesthetics of the old tower.

9.0 Holding the candle in the wind, walking through the mist on the spring and heading for the eternal land - he made me, a religious atheist, start to think about what faith is.

Domenico: Where am I when I'm not in reality or in my imagination? Here's my new pact to the world: it must be sunny at night and snowy at August. Great things end, small things endure. Society must become united again instead of so disjointed. Just look at nature and you'll see that life is simple. We must go back to where we were to the point where you took the wrong turn. We must go back to the main foundations of life without dirtying the water. What kind of world is this if a madman tells you must be ashamed of yourselves? Music now!
