10:43 Red Sums up Kieslowski's Filmography

Red is Krzysztof Kieslowski's final movie, and the final film in the much heralded Three Colors Trilogy. Red stars Irene Jacob. Ostensibly the movie is about "fraternity," one of three ideals from the French Revolution. Although Kieslowski in interviews dismissed that a bit, I think it's accurate. This video reviews and analyzes the movie for some of the major philosophical questions and themes found in Red.
