Weronika (Irène Jacob) woont in het Poolse Krakau en haar dubbelganger Véronique (Irène Jacob) in Frankrijk. Beide meisjes worden op dezelfde dag geboren, lijden aan dezelfde hartkwaal en zijn beiden muzikaal. Op het moment dat de één sterft krijgt de ander een cassettebandje van een mysterieuze onbekende, met aanwijzingen waarmee ze op zoek gaat naar de ander. Dit resulteert in een filmische ode aan intimiteit en symfonie. (Picl)

Recensie (3)
For some, this is the seminal work of Polish-French cinematography. For me, it’s a movie that’s always good at the end of the one plot line told. Anything in between that, however, is incredibly boring and draggy.

I preferred Krzysztof Kieślowski as director in The Decalogue series, which was realistic enough for the emotions he wanted to present to resonate. In the case of this more experimental film, its concept didn't work for me as well. It's still a good movie, but it just didn't wow me like I had hoped.

The lack of a complex and convoluted plot is not a disadvantage in the case of this film, as director Kieslowski primarily works with the innermost emotions of both the characters and the audience. The entire film is built upon a striking audiovisual experience, crafted by the masterful cinematography of Slawomir Idziak (known for his work in Black Hawk Down), and the unobtrusive yet highly impactful musical score by Zbigniew Preisner. This almost dreamlike combination made me sit up in my seat in the movie theater and despite its relatively short runtime, the film felt even shorter. I have never experienced such a pleasantly conflicting mixture of emotions upon leaving the movie theater before.
