Krzysztof Kieślowski at the camera

Krzysztof Kieślowski has always worked very closely with his cinematographers. This relationship between the director and the cinematographer was essential when shooting documentary films, when it was so important to capture an ephemeral event, catching reality in the act. The most significant cinematographers working on documentaries together with Kieślowski include: Jacek Petrycki, Witold Stok, and Piotr Kwiatkowski.
