Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaKieslowski and co-screenwriter Krzysztof Piesiewicz expressed an affection for the character of the young singer who contemplates surgery, and they lamented the fact that there was little for her to do in this story. When they began writing "The Double Life of Veronique", they remembered the plight of the singer in Dekalog - how her passion was limited by her sickness - and transferred this storyline over to the characters of Veronique and Weronika.

The Tragedy of Errors...
Decalogue 9 - "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife" is a story of the words misinterpreted, the important phone calls missed by a second. The loving couple has to deal with the serious problems that include the husband's impotence and the wife's infidelity. She loves her husband and does not want to leave him even after she learns the sad truth about his condition. She wants to end a strictly physical affair with a younger boyfriend. Her husband does not know that and the tragedy of errors just about to happen
Decalogue 9 is also interesting because in it we first meet the main character of Kieslowski's later film, "Double Life of Veronique." Roman, the hero of Decalogue 9 is a heart surgeon and works in the hospital. One of his patients is a young, full of life girl who loves to sing and has a heart condition. Her favorite composers are Bach, Mozart, and Van den Budenmayer (a fictitious Dutch composer whose music is written by the regular Kieslowski's associate, Zbigniew Preisner).
