In this dark and compelling film, Roman Polanski stars as Trelkovsky, a meek Polish émigré in Paris who takes an apartment recently vacated by a suicidal girl. The mounting oppression of his identity and his paranoia are brilliantly conveyed from Trelkovsky's first realisation that there is something strange about the place where he has chosen to live.
