"Dekalog"


Nothing attractive seeming to be on at Cineworld, I took out a DVD from the Library today - for the first time. The choice (huge) eventually fell on Polish director Krzysztof Kieślowski's Dekalog - a series of ten hour-long films, each of which represents one of the Ten Commandments: they were made originally (1989) for TV. We watched VI and VII only, adultery and theft - strong stuff, but affecting. The little girl Ania looked just like Ida, making VII all the more poignant.

I spotted this sign at St Margaret's, in West Herefordshire, when we were on holiday there four Summers ago. The church stands on its own, next to a farm duck pond.
