Summary/Abstract: Krzysztof Kieślowski employed film properties in a creative way in his Three Colours (Trois couleurs,) trilogy. They play various roles in Blue (Bleu,), White (Blanc,) and Red (Rogue,): they make the presented world more probable, co-create images of heroes, build dramaturgy and convey symbolic content. Such a treatment of film props is shaped by the director’s film style and creates a specific cinematic atmosphere.
