Critically-acclaimed trilogy of French/Polish drama films directed by Krzysztof Kieślowski (also the director of Blind Chance and The Double Life of Veronique), and released in relatively close proximity to each other in 1993 - 1994. They are named after the three colors in the French flag; blue, white and red, and each has a corresponding color motif. They are each loosely based on one of the three French revolutionary principles of liberty, equality and fraternity. The trilogy are also interpreted respectively as an anti-tragedy, an anti-comedy, and an anti-romance.
