The Decalogue (TV series)
''The Decalogue'' ((ポーランド語:Dekalog), ) is a 1989 Polish television drama series directed by Krzysztof Kieślowski〔(Bio of Krysztof Kieślowski on www.facets.org )〕 and co-written by Kieślowski with Krzysztof Piesiewicz, with music by Zbigniew Preisner.〔http://www.offoffoff.com/film/2001/decalogue.php Series overview〕 It consists of ten one-hour films, inspired by the Ten Commandments.〔(Ten Commandmentw on http://catholic-resources.org )〕 Each short film explores one or several moral or ethical issues faced by characters living in an austere apartment block in modern Poland.
The series is Kieślowski's most acclaimed work, has been said to be "the best dramatic work ever done specifically for television" 〔http://www.robertfulford.com/Decalogue.html Fulford, Robert - The National Post, 14 May 2002〕 and has won numerous international awards, though it was not widely released outside Europe until the late 1990s.〔(Critical response on www.facets.org )〕 Filmmaker Stanley Kubrick wrote an admiring foreword to the published screenplay in 1991.〔(Stanley Kubrick review of the film on www.visual-memory.co.uk )〕
==Production==
Though each film is independent, most of them share the same setting (a large housing project in Warsaw), and some of the characters are acquainted with each other. The large cast includes both famous actors and unknowns, many of whom Kieślowski also used in his other films. Typically for Kieślowski, the tone of most of the films is melancholic, except for the final one, which, like ''Three Colors: White'', is a black comedy, and features two of the same actors, Jerzy Stuhr and Zbigniew Zamachowski.
The series was conceived when Krzysztof Piesiewicz, who had seen a 15th-century artwork illustrating the Commandments in scenes from that time period, suggested the idea of a modern equivalent. Krzysztof Kieślowski was interested in the philosophical challenge and also wanted to use the series as a portrait of the hardships of Polish society, while deliberately avoiding the political issues he had depicted in earlier films. He originally meant to hire ten different directors, but decided to direct the films himself, though using a different cinematographer for each with exception of episodes III and IX, both of which used Piotr Sobociński as director of photography.〔(The Decalogue cinematographers on www.facets.org )〕
