Tempo di viaggio (1983), a documentary about Andrei Tarkovsky, features a scene in which Tarkovsky talks about an idea that he wants to make a film of: "About a man who sets his wife on fire only because she doesn't tell the truth, because she lies. Lies aren't very important issues, you see? He Ioves her very much, and she Ioves him. She is a wonderful woman, they Iove each other, and they have a wonderful relationship. But she makes things up. She goes out and when she comes back, he asks: Where have you been? She answers: 'I was visiting a friend.' But he knows that she wasn't at her friend's house, she was some pIace eIse, Iet's say in the movie theatre. He doesn't understand why she Iies. I think she doesn't reaIise it either. Maybe because of some seIf-preservation instincts. He struggles with her but cannot convince her not to Iie. In the end he ties her to a tree and sets her on fire, Iike Joan of Arc. I Iike this idea very much, but I didn't make a movie out of it." This may be the reason for Lars Von Trier's dedication of the film to Andrei Tarkovsky.
