Blind Chance (Przypadek)

"Krzysztof Kieslowski ranks as one of Poland's great directors. One of his best films, Blind Chance, was produced during the highwater mark of Solidarity, and then shelved at the advent of martial law. This is the story of a young man who faces three choices at a crucial moment in his life-depending on whether or not he makes a train in Lódz for Warsaw. Kieslowski takes the viewer on a time-machine into the future to examine these choices at close range... Tightly narrated, with strong performances by the principals all the way down the line, Blind Chance is vintage Polish narrative cinema graced with social and political overtones. Indeed this kaleidoscope of contemporary Polish reality during the past two decades should not be missed by film and history buffs." -Ron Holloway, Vancouver Film Festival
