7.0An early Kieslowski with all the trademarks that he refined later in life and that made him one of the greatest filmmakers ever: the politics, the moral dilemmas, the existential questions - that are, of course, not resolved. It's put together well, although his later greats are much tighter. While watching, I couldn't help but wonder how much of this is actually autobiographical.
