CERN CineClub - Dekalog 5 and 6

Wednesday 16 Nov 2016, 20:00 → 22:00 Europe/Zurich

503/1-001 - Council Chamber (CERN)

Dekalog – 5

Directed by Krzysztof Kieslowski  

Poland, 1990, 59 min.

"Thou shalt not kill" - a shorter, slightly less graphic version of 'A Short Film About Killing', but the plot is essentially the same: murder followed by execution, two killings, one illegal, one legal, both hideous.

Dekalog – 6

Directed by Krzysztof Kieslowski 

Poland, 1990, 60 min.

"Thou shalt not commit adultery" - a shorter, scaled-down version of 'A Short Film About Love', with a less complex plot and a different ending - though the basic narrative about the relationship between a lonely 19-year- old boy and the thirtysomething artist that he spies on every night is the same.
