Z punktu widzenia voyeura. „Dekalog, sześć” Krzysztofa Kieślowskiego
From a Voyeur’s Perspective: Krzysztof Kieślowski’s „Dekalog: Six”

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyze the titular perspective of the voyeur in Dekalog: Six (1988) by Krzysztof Kieślowski from the perspective of contemporary ethics. The reception of a work is always conditioned by its historical context. The main character, nineteen-year-old Tomek (Olaf Lubaszenko), who watches and spies on an older woman, Magda (Grażyna Szapołowska), with whom he is obsessed, is no longer perceived as a romantic hero but rather as a stalker in the context of contemporary reflection shaped by the ethics of care and the Me Too movement. A contemporary perspective, including the empowerment of female characters, the emphasis on relational ethics, and a focus on universal values, encourages a reassessment of Tomek’s behaviour towards Magda, as well as a re-evaluation of the heroine’s attitude.
