Mirror (Russian: Зеркало, tr. Zerkalo; known in the United States as The Mirror ) is a 1975 Russian art film directed by Andrei Tarkovsky. It is loosely autobiographical, unconventionally structured, and incorporates poems composed and read by the director's father, Arseny Tarkovsky. The film features Margarita Terekhova, Ignat Daniltsev, Alla Demidova, Anatoli Solonitsyn, Tarkovsky's wife Larisa Tarkovskaya and his mother Maria Vishnyakova, with a soundtrack by Eduard Artemyev.
Mirror is noted for its loose and nonlinear narrative. It unfolds as an organic flow of memories recalled by a dying poet (based on Tarkovsky's own father Arseny, who in reality would outlive his son by three years) of key moments in his life both with respect to his immediate family as well as that of the Russian people as a whole during the tumultuous events of the twentieth century. In an effort to represent these themes visually, the film combines contemporary scenes with childhood memories, dreams, and newsreel footage; its cinematography slips, often unpredictably, between color, black-and-white, and sepia. The film's loose flow of visually oneiric images, combined with its rich - and often symbolic - imagery has been compared with the stream of consciousness technique in Modernist literature. It has also found favor with many Russians for whom it remains their most beloved of Tarkovsky's works.

BΑΣΙΛΙΚΗ ΜΟΥΣΤΑΦΕΡΗ
Andrei Tarkovski - Zerkalo (The Mirror) 1975.
My favorite sequence shot from Andrei Tarkovsky's "Zerkalo" or "The Mirror". This is actually in Russian but that was not an option so I put German.
From Andrei Tarkovsky's "The Mirror." The sequence of long shots depicting the burning house. Pay attention to the use of natural elements, and how they interact - water and fire.
A dying man in his forties http://themirror75.blogspot.com/ remembers his past. His childhood, his mother, the war, personal moments & things that tell of the recent history of all the Russian nation.
Looking for protection
The mirror is a door made out of glass
Spend some time, watch life pass
The mirror is where death comes and goes
Spend some time and age shows
When I put my firts suit on
I looked so young and strong
The perfect cover for a boy
Who thought himself a broken toy
But noone else's supposed to see
Noone else supposed to...
Agree...
Looking for protection
A beautiful woman and fashion sways
Elegance is the embrace of decay
Oh, there was this different one
Makes me proud, the way it was done
Stripes and buttons everywhere
That hid my helplessnes, my fear
The perfect image for a man
Who always lends a helping hand
I strike a hand across my chin
Learn to like what is within
To like the things I fear the most
What I seek and all my...
Ghosts...
I'm standing here wondering what to wear
Nude and in the flesh I have to stare
