The second part of Krzysztof Kieślowski’s ‘Dekalog’ series is based on a true story and deals with the commandment ‘Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain’: Dorota’s husband Andrzej has cancer. She is having an affair and is pregnant with the other man’s child, but does not want to have the child if Andrzej survives. An elderly doctor she has consulted hesitates to give a prognosis, but a confrontation with issues of life and death at many levels is unavoidable, and the viewer is left at the threshold of understanding.

Film series, PL 1988/89, in German, ca. 55 min, Director: Krzysztof Kieślowski
