DESCRIPTION:\n	This masterwork by Krzysztof Kieslowski is one of the twenti
 eth century’s greatest achievements in visual storytelling. Originally mad
 e for Polish television\, The Dekalog focuses on the residents of a housin
 g complex in late-Communist Poland\, whose lives become subtly intertwined
  as they face emotional dilemmas that are at once deeply personal and univ
 ersally human. Its ten hour-long films\, drawing from the Ten Commandments
  for thematic inspiration and an overarching structure\, grapple deftly wi
 th complex moral and existential questions concerning life\, death\, love\
 , hate\, truth\, and the passage of time. Shot by nine different cinematog
 raphers\, with stirring music by Zbigniew Preisner\, The Dekalog explores 
 the unknowable forces that shape our lives. \n\n\n	I Am The Lord Thy God (
 Dekalog 1)\n	\n	Dir. Krzysztof Kieslowski. 1988\, 53 mins. Restored DCP. W
 ith Henryk Baranowski\, Wojciech Klata\, Maja Komorowska\, Artur Barcis. I
 n taking the First Commandment as their starting point\, Kieslowski and Pi
 esiewicz address the question of God's existence and man's creation of fal
 se idols. Krzysztof\, a scientist\, introduces his beloved little son\, Pa
 wel\, to the mysteries of the personal computer\, a machine which he belie
 ves to be infallible. It is winter\, and Pawel\, anxious to try out a new 
 pair of skates\, asks his father if he can go out to the local pond which 
 has just frozen over. They consult the computer and determine with great p
 recision that the ice will hold the boy's weight. But an unpredictable con
 vergence of meteorological factors is about to threaten the scientist's fa
 ith. \n\n\n	Thou Shalt Not Take the Name of Thy Lord God in Vain (Dekalog 
 2)\n	\n	Dir. Krzysztof Kieslowski. 1988. 57 mins. Restored DCP. With Kryst
 yna Janda\, Aleksander Bardini\, Olgierd Lukaszewicz\, Artur Barcis. The h
 ead of an intensive care unit is a lonely\, older man who enjoys a stable 
 life and the faded memories of his youth. His tranquility is abruptly shak
 en when the fate of an unborn child is unexpectedly placed in his hands. T
 he expectant mother (Krystyna Janda) is a young violinist whose husband is
  in critical condition in that very ward. But the child was fathered by an
 other. She has decided that if her husband lives\, she will have an aborti
 on\, and if he dies\, she will have the baby. Thus it is the doctor’s prog
 nosis that will decide.\n	\n	\n	\n	Tickets: $12 (Free for members at the F
