Veronika in Poland and Veronique in Paris are somehow linked – same birth date, same musical talent, same heart problems, same dreams. They never meet (except for one brief puzzling glimpse). One life ends, the other continues but always with a mysterious feeling of some indistinct connection with another being.

Polish filmmaker Krzysztof Kieslowski made a beautiful film with the amazing Irene Jacob playing dual roles, but he purposely left clear meanings outside the frame, so that we could just enjoy the beauty and the mystery of life and identity.
