  • The political wounds inflicted on the Polish people during the post-Solidarity era are dramatized in this tragic film from world-renowned director Krzysztof Kieslowski. A dedicated attorney is busy building a defense for a fiery labor activist and strike organizer when he suddenly dies in an automobile accident. His widow, realizing too late how much she truly loved her husband, believes the only way for her to feel whole again is to further his cause. She hires an aging, compromising lawyer to take on this one last case. Ultimately, she realizes that no matter what social ramifications this trial has, her grief for her husband will never fade. Kieslowski's film is as much a political commentary as it is a metaphysical drama, one in which a deceased man continues to affect the world through his widow's absolute love. Made with Kieslowski's traditional somberness, NO END is a haunting, ultimately moving work that hints at themes the director would develop in his masterworks THE DECALOGUE and THREE COLORS TRILOGY.
