Three Colors: White

For the second installment, Kieslowski took on the color white which represents equality. A Polish man is divorced by his French wife and returns back to his country where he find success which leads him to get even with her. The lightest and weakest of the three films only because the other two turned out to be striking masterpieces. It's more political but with plenty of humor which makes for memorable film none-the-less. Zbigniew Zamachowski and Julie Delpy star as the couple whose equality is challenged by their nationalities which tests their love and relationship. Cinematographer Edward Klosinski brings a realistic and sober look washed by light while Zbigniew Preisner continues the score with different variation. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
