**BRIEF PLOT?
Sergeant Cannon, (Tommy Cannon) and PC Ball, (Bobby Ball) are the only officers in Little Botham, a small seaside village, the crime rate being so low that the local station is on the verge of closure, leaving the duo out of work.
The bumbling pair come up with a devious plan, involving a rich business man, (Roy Kinear).
Unfortunately the pair are soon in trouble when they inadvertently stumble across some unscrupulous people and a million pounds worth of painting.

This is the resolution of Julie Vignon (Juliette Binoche), the central character of Three Colours: Blue. The survivor of a car crash which took the lives of her husband Patrice, a celebrated composer, and her young daughter, she desires nothing but to withdraw from life, cutting all ties and bonds that formerly surrounded her.
The creation of a Franco-Polish collaboration, and the last project of acclaimed director Krzysztof Kieslowski, the Three Colours trilogy (Blue being the first, White the second and Red the third) takes as its focus the three foundations of the French state; Liberté, égalité et fraternité. Reflecting also the French tricolore, Blue deals with an interpretation of Liberty ...
