Krzysztof Kieslowski's rise from relative obscurity to being recognized as one of Europe's most gifted film-makers was meteoric. Within a decade he completed The Decalogue , his series of 10 contemporary interpretaions of the Ten Commandments, as well as his celebrated Three Colours trilogy. Then, at the height of his creative powers, Kieslowski announced that he would prefer to retire and sit quietly in a room by himself and smoke, and two years later he died. As well as having an introductory essay, in this book each of Kieslowski's films are discussed in detail, from Camera Buff , the film that first brought Kieslowski to international recognition, to his last film, Three Colours: Red . There is also a handy multi-media reference guide.
