Kris Kelvin, a psychologist, is sent to Solaris in order to decide whether it is useful or not to continue to explore the planet. There are only three people left inside the Solaris base as the rest of the scientists have returned to Earth.

It appears that an alien intelligence, hidden in Solaris ocean, has the ability to materialize the thoughts or souvenirs of the members of the crew. Soon Kris must face Hari, his late wife who died seven years ago on Earth.
