I’ve decided to dedicate my next film series to a movie I’ve overlooked — Krzysztof Kieslowkski’s 1985 film “No End.” This is the last movie Kieslowski made before the Dekalog — although it doesn’t appear so in his filmography. “Blind Chance” was released in 1987, having sat on the shelf since 1981 due to a censorship ban by the martial law Polish government.

I say that I decided to pick this film, but this is the kind of movie that will make you wonder if you have any choice at all in life, that everything might be pre-destined.

It features four major actors from the Dekalog. The movie stars Grazyna Szapolowska, who played Magda in Dekalog 6 and “A Short Film About Love.” It also features Maria Pakulnis, who played Ewa in Dekalog 3; Aleksander Bardini, the doctor in Dekalog 2 (who is also in “The Double Life of Veronique” and “Three Colours: White”) and Artur Barcis, who plays The Watcher, who mysteriously appears in 8 of the 10 Dekalog episodes without a line of dialogue (or word of explanation.)

This is also the first film where Kieslowski collaborates with Krzysztof Piesiewicz on the script — they will work together on the Dekalog and every subsequent film. Zbigniew Preisner, whose music is essential to Kieslowski’s work from now on, also joins the crew for the first time here.

“No End” serves as a preview of themes that will haunt the rest of Kieslowski’s career — issues of ethics and metaphysics abound. There is a child who is about to experience missing parents. The central plot concerns a clash between idealism and pragmatism. And there’s a great deal of coincidence and spooky things happening that may or may not be caused by ghosts.

But while we’re on the subjects of ghosts, I have to mention what brought me to this film. My blog traffic in recent days has had numerous hits around Dekalog episodes 3 and 6. Today it focused on the subject of hands, and nothing in the Kieslowski corpus more directly focuses on the hands as this film.

Maybe it was the story I read in Popular Mechanics online yesterday that challenged the notion of free will … but I just have a sense that the universe was pointing me toward this movie before I went looking for it, and I’m not going to deny the tidal forces of the world what they desire.

So, it’s back to Kieslowski for me for one more movie (maybe two, if I feel like taking on “Blind Chance” afterwards.) Whatever or whoever desired this return, you’ll get your wish.
