The concluding chapter in filmmaker
Krzysztof Kieslowski's "Three Colors" trilogy,
Red stars the luminous
Irène Jacob as Valentine, a young student and fashion model who befriends a bitter former judge (
Jean-Louis Trintignant, his character a proxy for Kieslowski himself). Their accidental meeting is just one of the many chance encounters woven through the narrative fabric of this feature, the most accomplished effort in Kieslowski's highly ambitious series. Like its predecessors,
Red corresponds to a color of the French flag, as well as the color's symbolic attributes. The subject here is fraternity, and indeed, its central characters are all closely connected, their destinies locked on a collision course. The film's final scene even ties up the trilogy by bringing together the protagonists of the other features.
