Synopsis: The final section of the late Krzysztof Kieslowski's acclaimed Three Colors trilogy (preceded by "Blue" and "White") is a strong, unique piece that reflects upon the ubiquity of images in the modern world and the parallel subjugation of meaningful communication. Irene Jacob plays a fashion model whose lovely face is hugely enlarged on a red banner no one in Paris can possibly miss seeing. Striking up a relationship with an embittered former judge (Jean-Louis Trintignant), who secretly scans his neighbors' conversations through electronic surveillance, Jacob's character becomes an aural witness to the secret lives of those we think we know. Kieslowski cleverly wraps up the trilogy with a device that brings together the principals of all three films. -- Tom Keogh

Synopsis: From Polish director Krzysztof Kieslowski, who created the "Blue," "White" and "Red" trilogy, comes this enigmatic drama about duality. Veronika, a young Polish woman, embraces each aspect of her life with zeal. She has many friendships, sexual and platonic, and a variety of interests. A serious heart ailment, however, debilitates her periodically, but she refuses to let it hold her back. On her way to a singing contest, she sees a woman who is her spitting image. Veronika tries to catch the lookalike's attention but fails. The second woman is named Veronique and, later, SHE begins to feel as if she, too, has an "other." Or, are these two really separate manifestations of the same woman?

Best actress award at the Cannes Film Festival in 1991

** Why is this video so expensive? It was priced by the studio for the rental market. The price often drops to under $30 within 6 months of its video release date. When the studio lowers the price of the movie, we'll adjust its price in our store. But if you love it, and want it now, we want you to have it. Enjoy!
