DEKALOG (Parts 1 to 5)


DEKALOG, from the acclaimed director of
the 'Three Colours' trilogy, was premiered to unanimous glowing critical praise at the 1989 Venice Film Festival and its repu-
tation as a cinematic masterpiece remains
undiminished.

The ten hour-long films, loosely based on the Ten Commandments, are all equally captivating and powerful.

The stories are set around the same modern Warsaw apartment block and focus on the com-
plexities of human relationships. The themes are the universal ones of love, marriage, infidelity,
parenthood, guilt, faith and compassion.
The result is a unique and life-enhancing look at the various moral dilemmas faced by ordinary people in their daily lives.
