English abstract

The main psychological and philosophical aspects from the film Solaris directed by Andrei Tarkovski, as well as the cinematographic techniques used by the director to convey his messages to the viewer. In the "Introduction" I briefly present the relevant elements of Tarkovsky's biography and an overview of the novel Solaris by Stanislav Lem and the film Solaris directed by Andrei Tarkovsky. In "Cinematic technique" I talk about the specific rhythm of the scenes, the radical movement triggered by Tarkovsky in modern cinema, the role of symbolic and iconic elements, and the affinities with the fantastic area of Russian literature. In "Psychological Aspects" I analyze the problem of communication in a human society of the future considered by Tarkovsky as rigid, the obsession of the house, and the personal evolution of Kris, Hari, and the relationships between them. In "Philosophical aspects" the film is analyzed through the prism of the philosophy of mind (Cartesian dualism, reductionism and functionalism), the problem of personal identity, the theory of heterotopic spaces developed by Michel Foucault, and the semantic interpretations that can be deduced from the film. Also, the problem of personal identity is analyzed through the lens of Locke's philosophy. The "conclusions" state the general ideas resulting from this essay, namely that man's attempts to classify and preserve forms of interaction with unknown entities will always be doomed to failure and will reflect a major mistake in the panoptic world in which we live. Within this framework of analysis of the philosophy of mind, functionalism seems to be the most intuitive. Solaris is, however, a film that begins as a search for answers and ends up providing those answers along with a whole different set of questions.

Romanian abstract

Principalele aspecte psihologice și filosofice desprinse din filmul Solaris regizat de Andrei Tarkovski, precum și tehnicile cinematografice utilizate de regizor pentru a-și transmite mesajele spectatorului. În ”Introducere” prezint pe scurt elementele relevante din biografia lui Tarkovski și o prezentare generală a romanului Solaris a lui Stanislav Lem și filmul Solaris în regia lui Andrei Tarkovsky. În ”Tehnica cinematografică” vorbesc despre ritmul specific al scenelor, mișcarea radicală declanșată de Tarkovsky în cinematografia modernă, rolul elementelor simbolice și iconice, , și afinitățile cu zona fantastică a literaturii ruse. În ”Aspecte psihologice” analizez problema comunicării într-o societate umană a viitorului considerată de Tarkovsky ca rigidă, obsesia casei, și evoluția personală a lui Kris, Hari, și a relațiilor dintre ei. În ”Aspecte filosofice” se analizează filmul prin prisma filosofiei minții (dualismul cartezian, reducționismul și funcționalismul), a problemei identității personale, a teoriei spațiilor heterotopice dezvoltată de Michel Foucault, și interpretările semantice care se pot deduce din film. De asemenea, se analizează problema identității personale prin prisma filosofiei lui Locke. ”Concluziile” expun ideile generale rezultate din acest eseu, respectiv că tentativele omului de a clasifica și de a păstra forme de interacțiune cu entități necunoscute vor fi întotdeauna condamnate la eșec și vor reflecta o greșeală majoră în lumea panoptică în care trăim. În acest cadru de analiză a filosofiei minții, funcționalismul pare a fi cel mai intuitiv. Solaris este, totuși, un film care începe ca o căutare a răspunsurilor și ajunge să ofere aceste răspunsuri împreună cu o serie de întrebări cu totul diferite.
