THE DOUBLE LIFE OF VERONIQUE
Ekran - Toronto's Polish Film Festival are stopping by to present Krzysztof Kieślowski's stunning film THE DOUBLE LIFE OF VERONIQUE
DOORS: 7 PM
FILM: 8 PM
Krzysztof Kieślowski's international breakthrough remains one of his most beloved films, a ravishing, mysterious rumination on identity, love, and human intuition. Irène Jacob is incandescent as both Weronika, a Polish choir soprano, and her double, Véronique, a French music teacher. Though unknown to each other, the two women share an enigmatic, emotional bond, which Kieślowski details in gorgeous reflections, colors, and movements. Aided by Slawomir Idziak's shimmering cinematography and Zbigniew Preisner's haunting, operatic score, Kieślowski creates one of cinema's most purely metaphysical works. The Double Life of Véronique is an unforgettable symphony of feeling. (Janus Films)
