Like most Tarkovsky films, Stalker raises all kinds of issues about spirituality, the psyche, and human emotions. The pseudo-post-apocalyptic setting is fascinating, but it is the thoughtful undercurrent of dialogue that distinguishes the movies as a "thinking" sci-fi film. Needs a second and third viewing to fully understand.
