Written by Kieslowski's co-scripter for the colours trilogy, Krzysztof Piesiewicz and part of his latest trilogy, "Faith, Hope, and Love," Hope is director Mucha's fascinating and thoughtful debut feature following his popular documentary Absolut Warhola. When a well-respected art historian steals an invaluable painting from a church, righteous and fanatic Francis records the crime on video to blackmail him. However, the young man is not interested in money but demands that painting is returned. (iksv.org/)
