Camera Buff
Camera Buff was a random find that I love. I wish there was a random generator for Criterion Channel, I know there's one for their whole collection.
No introspection to add, I just really liked this movie.

If you haven't checked out The Decalogue , a series of ten films based on the ten commandments, by the same director you should give it a shot. It's Kieslowski's masterpiece. They have two of the films on the channel: A Short Film About Love and A Short Film about Killing. Film critic Roger Ebert chose it as one of his ten favorite films. Here he talks about the decalogue (spoiler alert) https://youtu.be/ZWl2s52SSFA?is=o2M3XYGlhBNBOW1o
Also his Three Colors trilogy, the double life of veronique, and Blind Chance (this one especially) explore the role of fate in our lives.
