本片是导演安德烈·塔科夫斯基（Andrei Tarkovsky）的一部自传体电影。幼年的塔科夫斯基随着母亲（玛格瑞塔·泰瑞柯娃 Margarita Terekhova 饰）去亲戚家借钱，他独自在一个陌生的房间里发现了一面镜子，并通过镜子审视自己，在巴赫的音乐中，塔可夫斯基的回忆慢慢带出了一系列的事件：电视上在播报一个口吃的年轻人通过催眠治痊了自己；一个被家庭忽视的妻子遇上一位迷路的乡村医生，两人之间产生若即若离的关系；一个未曾露面的叙述者与前妻在争吵；一个早熟的年轻人备受军事指导员的呵责。这些毫无关联的片段式回忆通过镜子串联起来，展现了导演对时间、历史、生活、土地、梦境等意象的哲学思考。 导演的母亲在影片中扮演艺术家的母亲；他的父亲，一位著名的俄罗斯诗人，在画外音中朗读自己的诗作。
The Seventh Bullet is a Soviet Ostern film of 1972 directed by Ali Khamraev. In the same tradition as The White Sun of the Desert and The Bodyguard, The Seventh Bullet is set after the Russian Civil War which ended in the 1920s when Soviet power established itself in Central Asia in the wake of the Basmachi rebellion. Despite this slight shift in emphasis and a post-war setting, The Seventh Bullet is closer to a typical war film than other Red Westerns because of a prominence of tactical resourcefulness in the development of the plot. Although of course this is a staple of many American Westerns from John Ford's cavalry series to the many Apache war films. Despite the restoration of Soviet power in the area, Basmachis continue to arrive from across the border, bringing death and destruction to peaceful villages. One of the bands of rebels is led by Khairulla who is pitted against the militsiya (local militia) leader Maxumov. At first it seems hopeless for Maxumov as the rebels capture most of his men, winning them over to his side. He has only one strategy left; to give himself up, and try to explain to the people that Khairulla has deceived them, turning the soldiers back to revolution. Later in pursuit of his enemy, he chases Khairulla across a river. He has only one bullet left—the seventh, and he must not miss his target!
