Krzysztof Kieslowski
Description:This masterwork by Krzysztof Kie?lowski (Three Colors) is one of the twentieth century's greatest achievements in visual storytelling. Originally made for Polish television, Dekalog focuses on the residents of a housing complex in post-Communist Poland, whose lives become subtly intertwined as they face emotional dilemmas that are at once deeply personal and universally human. Using the Ten Commandments for thematic inspiration and an overarching structure, Dekalog's ten hour-long films deftly grapple with complex moral and existential questions concerning life, death, love, hate, truth, and the passage of time. Shot by nine different cinematographers, with stirring music by Zbigniew Preisner (The Double Life of Veronique) and compelling performances from established and unknown actors alike, Dekalog arrestingly explores the unknowable forces that shape our lives. Also presented are the longer theatrical versions of Dekalog's fifth and sixth films: A Short Film About Killing and A Short Film About Love.
The "Dekalog" Blu-Ray edition by Criterion Collection presents Krzysztof Kie?lowski's monumental ten-part film cycle, inspired by the Ten Commandments. Set in late-Communist Poland, each episode explores profound moral and ethical dilemmas faced by ordinary people. This acclaimed series is celebrated for its deep humanism, subtle storytelling, and masterful direction. The Criterion Collection is renowned for its meticulous restorations and authoritative editions of classic cinema, ensuring top-quality viewing experiences with insightful supplements. Krzysztof Kie?lowski (1941?1996), one of Europe's most influential filmmakers, gained international recognition with works such as "The Double Life of Véronique" and the "Three Colors" trilogy ("Blue," "White," "Red"). His collaborators include screenwriter Krzysztof Piesiewicz and composer Zbigniew Preisner?both integral to his signature style. Notable actors featured in Dekalog include Artur Barci?, who appears throughout the series as a mysterious observer; Daniel Olbrychski ("The Promised Land"); and Krystyna Janda ("Man of Marble"), all highly respected figures in Polish cinema.
