Doar pe Tarkovskiana
A cinematic universe you will not find on any other platform. Rare films, exclusive materials, digital restorations, and ongoing cultural research – all in one place, dedicated to the art of film.
The Complete Works of Andrei Tarkovsky
Tarkovskiana is the only place where you can watch the complete works of the most important poet of the screen in the twentieth century. From his debut short film – The Steamroller and the Violin (1960) – to his final feature, The Sacrifice (1986), all films by Andrei Tarkovsky are present on the platform: Ivan’s Childhood (1962), Andrei Rublev (1966), Solaris (1972), Mirror (1974), Stalker (1979), and Nostalghia (1983).
Each film is accompanied by contextual materials that enrich the viewing experience: directing notes, production history, period reviews, and connections with the artist’s other works. This is not merely about watching a film, but about entering the creative universe of the person who made it.
Exclusive Materials: Interviews, Memoirs, Screenplays
Beyond films, Tarkovskiana offers the public a library of text materials you will not find on any other streaming platform. These resources are the result of continuous work in acquisition, translation, and publication in Romanian:
Rare interviews – testimonies of the great artist, many published for the first time in Romanian, recovered from archives and specialised publications around the world.
Lessons in directing, screenwriting, editing, and acting – the teachings Tarkovsky passed on to his students at VGIK and during public lectures, translated and annotated.
Screenplays – the complete screenplays, offering the possibility of following the creative process from the written page to the image on screen.
Diaries and memoirs – personal notes and reflections of the artist, intimate documents that reveal the thinking behind the works.
Speeches and lectures – addresses delivered by Tarkovsky at festivals, universities, and international cultural events.
This library is continuously growing, with new materials added as Tarkovskiana’s research advances.
Tarkovsky’s Cultural Recommendations
Throughout his 25-year career (1961–1986), Andrei Tarkovsky was not merely a director, but a true spiritual guide of world cinema. He recommended films, books, musical compositions, and philosophical works that shaped his thinking and his art. Tarkovskiana brings together these recommendations and presents them to the public in a context that gives them meaning and depth – a cultural map drawn by one of the most profound minds of the twentieth century.
Rare Titles and Digital Restorations
The Tarkovskiana collection includes films you will not find on conventional streaming platforms – rare works from the history of world cinema, many of them never before shown in the Romanian cultural space. These titles are unavailable elsewhere not through neglect, but because they require dedicated work in identification, acquisition, and preparation for distribution.
Many of the films in the collection have been digitally restored and remastered using current technologies, bringing back the original brilliance of classic works. This restoration process is an integral part of Tarkovskiana’s mission: preserving the cinematographic heritage and passing it on to present and future generations.
