Directed by: Krzysztof Kieslowski
Krzysztof Kie lowski s Dekalog is one of the greatest achievements of the late twentieth century as much an intricate work of moral philosophy as it is a collection of psychologically riveting narratives. Each standalone story revolves around the consequences arising from a breach of one of the Ten Commandments, but this is no finger-wagging religious tract: Kie lowski was one of film history s keenest observers of human nature, and his troubled, vainglorious, self-deceiving, deeply flawed characters (many played by some of Poland s finest character actors) are all too universally recognisable.
Dekalog is merely the highlight of a box set that compiles virtually all of Kie lowski s television work, starting with his first professional short fiction film and continuing with four feature-length pieces that are in every way as probing and incisive as his better-known cinema films.
