A Short Film about Love (Krzysztof Kieślowski, Poland 1988)
In 1989, Kieślowski wrote and directed a 10-part miniseries for Polish television that re-imagined the Ten Commandments set in contemporary Warsaw. He expanded two of the 1-hour episodes into feature length films, including Episode Six, his adaptation of the commandment Thou Shalt not Commit Adultery. Tomek, a naive 19-year-old postal worker, becomes dangerously obsessed with Magda, a promiscuous, jaded older woman living across the courtyard. He spies on her with a telescope and engineers encounters leading to a tense encounter between the two. Part of the UW-Green Bay LLI course.
All films begin at 7:00pm in the Neville Public Museum auditorium and are on the 1st Wednesday of the month.
All films are free and open to the public and are unrated but intended for a mature audience.
