Three Colors: Blue

Sun, Jul 2, 2023
    Part of
  • BAM Film 2023
  • and
  • Recent Restorations
Directed by Krzysztof Kieślowski
With ​​Juliette Binoche, Benoît Régent, Florence Pernel

The first in Krzysztof Kieślowski’s acclaimed trilogy exploring the symbolism of the three colors of the French flag—in this case, blue, for liberty—features one of Juliette Binoche’s finest performances. With piercing emotional depth, Binoche plays a Parisian woman who, following the death of her husband and daughter, attempts to start a new life unencumbered by emotional attachments—a quest for an illusory freedom that opens up profound questions about the meaning of personal liberty.
