    All the past, present, and future of the whole film are scattered into fragments of their own reflections, all of which are charged for the last scene—a big vision that shakes the depths of space and wanders in the eternity of...

    "Mirror" is an experience of being visualized. Have you ever had such an experience, standing in front of a mirror and staring at the other side when you were young, and an uncontrollable torrent of consciousness rushed through your mind in an instant. Memory, reality and fantasy, past and present intertwine. In actual operation, the result of this experience often leads to no solution, but at the end of "Mirror", I chose to stare and watch from a distance, which is the realm of the tower guide...

    That scene of the army crossing the sea becomes the core and essence of Laota's film, which begins with private lyrical memories. Under a grey, pale sky, people dragged their bodies through knee-high mud to the end of the swamp, with few repatriations. The multi-dimensionality and depth of this period of time engraved on the film has produced an effect that is almost shocking and purifying. This period is only a personal, heavy and painful memory for...

    No evaluation yet. Wait for the second brush. Incomprehensible, yet resonant, Tarkovsky's tone. At the beginning, he said "I can speak" through the stuttering young man, loud and powerful. And I, who didn't stutter originally, was...

    Through a very delicate display of time and memory, Tarkovsky has completed an unprecedented depiction of the illusory. Since then, dream and reality have begun to overlap like two sides of a mirror. Because we can also foresee the unknowable future, our blood will turn into the river of the world, I am about to reach a place I have never been before, that is my homeland, where I have run and where I will sleep...

Mirror quotes

  • Father: It seems to make me return to the place, poignantly dear to my heart, where my grandfather's house used to be in which I was born 40 years ago right on the dinner table. Each time I try to enter it, something prevents me from doing that. I see this dream again and again. And when I see those walls made of logs and the dark entrance, even in my dream I become aware that I'm only dreaming it. And the overwhelming joy is clouded by anticipation of awakening. At times something happens and I stop dreaming of the house and the pine trees of my childhood around it. Then I get depressed. And I can't wait to see this dream in which I'l be a child again and feel happy again because everything will still be ahead, everything will be possible...

  • Forensic doctor: You know, I fell and found strange things here - roots, bushes... Has it ever occurred to you that plants can feel, know, even comprehend? The trees, this hazelnut bush...

    Natalya: This is an alder tree.

    Forensic doctor: It doesn't matter. They don't run about. Like us who are rushing, fussing, uttering banalities. That's because we don't trust nature that is inside us. Always this suspiciousness, haste, and no time to stop and think.
