De Verzegelde Tijd by Andrei Tarkovsky
Reflections on the Cinema
A reflective collection of essays and memoir-like meditations that treat cinema as an art of “sculpting” time, arguing that film’s true power lies in preserving and revealing temporal and spiritual truth through images, rhythm, and long takes. The text blends practical thoughts on technique—editing, framing, sound—with philosophical reflections on memory, faith, creativity, and the moral responsibility of the artist. Interwoven with personal anecdotes and analyses of his own films, it functions as both a theoretical manifesto on poetic cinema and an intimate account of the creative process.
