우연한 사건의 한 인간의 삶에 엄청난 영향을 끼칠 수 있다는 이 영화의 철학적 암시는 암시의 명확성만큼이나 보편적이다. 하지만 이 영화는 영화를 특별하게 만드는 중심 인물에 대한 키에슬로브스키 감독의 진지한 접근방식을 보여준다. 1980년대와 90년대 폴란드의 상징적인 배우인 보그스와브 린다가 연기하는 주인공은 세 가지 다른 양상의 인생 속으로 내동댕이쳐진다. 하지만 주어진 상황과 무관하게 주인공은 항상 정직하고 선한 태도를 보인다. 키에슬로브스키 감독은 도덕의 상대주의를 피하고, 처한 상황에 따라 인간의 행동이 좌우되기보다는 그 인간이 가진 원래의 본성이 인간의 행동을 좌우하는 가장 중요한 요인이라는 점을 강조한다.

Sampson is one of several Andrzej Wajda films harking back to his youth during the Nazi Occupation of Poland. Many of these concern not only the struggle between good and evil, but also between passive and impassive. The hero is a Jewish youth.

Now he stands up for his right to survive, and in so doing represents the fighting spirit that culminated in the 1943 Warsaw Uprising. It was originally titled Samson, but re-spelled as Sampson upon its American release to avoid confusion with a sword-and-sandal epic of the same name.
