Stalker, a mysterious masterpiece from Russian filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky. One of the most incredible film experiences I’ve ever had.

For anyone interested, here is a feature film that I made, which I just recently put up free to watch on YouTube. It is a very slow strange story of a young woman trying to deal with the pain and isolation of  her daily struggles with depression and social anxiety.   This is more of an arthouse film than a traditional movie, and it takes its time exploring Madelline's life, dreams, and subconscious mind.
