Abstract
More than twenty years since its debut in 1989, the series Dekalog by Kieslowski makes possible, in my understanding, a rethinking of the presence of the religious element in a secular world such as our own. In this article, I will seek to illustrate the way in which Kieslowski’s Dekalog manifests, on the one hand, that religiosity is intrinsic to human nature and, on the other, that in a world more and more secularized, God makes himself present principally through his absence, an existential inquietude that the human being feels, experiences, and lives.
