Our take

Alternately gritty, funny, dark, and farcical: this is a film that truly defies categorization. Starring the great Julie Delpy (who appears in all the Three Colors Trilogy), Krzysztof Kieślowski offers a unique take on twisted love while satirizing the divide between Eastern and Western Europe.
