Description
(Trois couleurs: Blanc, 91 min., France/Poland/Switzerland 1994, original version with Italian subtitles) starring Julie Delpy, Zbigniew Zamachowski and Jerzy Stuhr
Karol, a Polish hairdresser in Paris, is forced by his wife to divorce on grounds of impotence. Returning to his own country, he succeeds in amassing wealth and in orchestrating a plan to win the woman back. This is the fiercest film in the trilogy, in which equality appears to be achieved through vengeance but is in fact sublimated in love.
The film will be preceded by a screening of
Railway station
(Dworzec, 12 min., Poland 1980, original version with Italian subtitles) documentary
Warsaw Central Station, with people coming and going in a place where nothing works properly apart from a television showing the news, with a few odd travellers casually stopping to watch. This film was to be Kieslowski's final documentary.
