Join us for another carefully chosen evening of cinema at The Sherborne, presented in partnership with Cinemathèque.
Krzysztof Kieślowski’s exquisitely beautiful The Double Life of Véronique is a haunting and lyrical exploration of identity, intuition and the mysterious connections that shape our lives.
Irène Jacob gives a captivating performance in the dual roles of Weronika, a young Polish singer, and Véronique, a French music teacher. Living separate lives in different countries, the two women have never met, yet share an extraordinary resemblance, similar passions and an inexplicable awareness of one another's existence.
As their stories unfold, Kieślowski draws us into a world where chance encounters, music and fleeting sensations suggest that our lives may be connected in ways we cannot fully understand.
Renowned for its luminous cinematography, rich golden hues and Zbigniew Preisner’s unforgettable score, the film is a remarkable achievement from the director of Dekalog and the celebrated Three Colours trilogy.
Winner of three awards at the 1991 Cannes Film Festival, including Best Actress for Irène Jacob, The Double Life of Véronique remains one of European cinema's most enchanting and enigmatic masterpieces.
A film to experience rather than explain, it invites us to consider the invisible threads that connect us, and the beauty of life's unanswered questions.
