This Kieslowski drama, made prior to his great fame in the West, is the initially comic story of a man whose unfortunate acquisition of a movie camera makes him an observer, rather than a participant, in his own life. So begins his downward spiral into personal tragedy. Kafka stories are also amusing at the beginning.
The great Polish actor Jerzy Stuhr plays the man.
To me, the emblematic final shot of this film rivals that of Truffaut's "Les quatre cents coups".
