> the human mind as the ultimate limit

At least in the American version of Solaris I felt like it asked if what we “know” or remember about a person is real / enough to make a person / how much we can even know…. and by extension what we really know about anything.

And regarding the character in the end who chooses to simply live with those memories/ ghosts created by his memory… maybe he isn’t any different than the rest of us.



My personal philosophy on truth is that it is simply what remains. In regards to our minds, these are our memories that persist for reasons we often never understand but are profound nonetheless
