Kieslowski has no need for fictional characters when real people are more interesting. You could say it's one of his mottos. Talking Heads is a demonstration of that, a series of interviews sorted chronologically by age with 100 different people. The transitioning of generations happens too quickly with very little youth which gets rid of the most interesting element of this. Aside from that element, all of the answers are the generic platitudes you'd expect from anyone.

İstanbul Modern: Çok iyi bir fikrin, net ve doğrudan bir şekilde uygulanmasıyla neler yapılabileceğinin bir kanıtı. Fikren çok iyi ve ortaya koydukları itibariyle önemli bir kısa belgesel.

Simple, but very interesting variety in both the actual responses and the attitude and conviction with which they're given. Speaks a lot to how not only attitudes but the way we frame those attitudes changes throughout life.

A clever idea for a film. tracing the answers to the same two questions from different people in 1980. The film moves chronologically, from youngest to oldest, and we get a sense of the impact of age and experience on answers. Narrow and straightforward at the beginning, broadened and complex in the middle, and then narrowing again at the end. Also, in the years leading up to the fall of communism, the cry for freedom can be heard throughout the film in a variety of ways.

Intriguing and insightful, but also funny... mainly because many of these people are so clueless. Thanks to how easy it is to see short films now thanks to the Internet, this is going to be fodder for 314,097,266 Polish jokes. Mark my words

A broad range of Polish citizens are filmed, by increasing age, answering the questions "who are you?" and "what do you want?". It's a fairly novel concept, and the responses are interesting. It's notable that almost everyone speaks on a very high-minded, philosophical level, but then one must assume that Kieslowski cherry-picked the best ones.
