The sacrifice

DVD - 2018

As a wealthy Swedish family celebrates the birthday of their patriarch Alexander, news of the outbreak of World War III reaches their remote Baltic island and the happy mood turns to horror. The family descends into a state of psychological devastation, brilliantly evoked by director Tarkovsky's arresting palette of luminous grays washing over the bleak landscape around their home.
