1941 – 1996
Mr. Kieslowski (1941-1996) started his career shooting documentaries and later became associated with the “cinema of moral anxiety, ” which grouped several Polish directors, including Andrzej Wajda, and aimed to depict the conditions of Poles under communism. His best known work was the three colors series “Red“, “White“, and “Blue“. Three Colors – Red brought him an Academy Award nomination for best director in 1995, Three Colors – Blue shared the Golden Lion at Venice in 1993, and Three Colors – White earned Mr. Kieslowski the best director prize in Berlin, 1994.
March 13, 1996, has brought the sad news – Krzysztof Kieslowski had passed away after a second heart attack. He did undergo a bypass surgery just two days earlier.
