Trois Couleurs: Rouge (aka Three Colors: Red) (1994)

A student (Irene Jacob) in Switzerland works as a part time model. One evening, she hits a dog with her car and tracks down the dog's owner (Jean Louis Trintignant) who seems indifferent to the situation. But their chance meeting will prove remarkable. Directed by Krzysztof Kieslowski, this was the final installment of his TROIS COULEURS trilogy which was preceded by BLEU and BLANC and also his final film as a director since he would die two years later. Among other things, ROUGE is principally a film about fate and chaste intimacy. An elaborate and expertly perceptive depiction of linked souls, Kieslowski's cinematic journey takes its time to get to its core but it's a journey well worth taking. The recipient of three Oscar nominations (director, screenplay, cinematography), it's considered by many as the best of the trilogy. With Jean Pierre Lorit, Frederique Feder and from the two previous films: Juliette Binoche, Julie Delpy, Benoit Regent and Zbigniew Zamachowski.
