Summary/Abstract: Filmed in 1986, the film "Offering" is the spiritual testament of its director Andriej Tarkowski. The represented world (reality, destinies of the heroes) is a symbolic relationship to the mystery of human life whose viewer is deeply moved. We show the means by which the "Offering" can reveal the experience of the sacred.
