Impossible to describe properly, Solaris does for the human being internally what 2001 A Space Odyssey does for the human being externally. The themes and messages conveyed in Solaris are almost impossible to be pinpointed, but that’s not a bad thing. I honestly saw a lot in common with this film and the aforementioned 2001 in the way they both, in different ways, examine what it is to be human, and what human beings all endure in their lives.
