Originally intended for Polish television, Krzysztof Kieślowski’s (Three Colors trilogy) legendary Dekalog consists of ten one-hour films inspired by the Ten Commandments. Each film explores one or several moral or ethical issues faced by characters living in a stark apartment block in modern Poland. The series, Kieślowski’s most acclaimed work, won numerous international awards, though it was not widely released outside Europe until the late 1990s. The rerelease, championed by Janus Films, will feature the entire series looking better than it has since its initial release.
