Juliette Binoche won the Cesar Award and the Venice Film Festival Award as Best Actress for her role in the first film of Kieslowski's acclaimed Three Colors trilogy. She plays a woman who becomes entangled in a mysterious web of passion and lies after she digs into the past life of her recently and unexpectedly deceased husband. "...the film's grasp of the fluctuations of moment-to-moment experience, including consciousness itself, is extraordinary, and Binoche's powerful performance never falters" (Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader). In French with English subtitles.
