You can stream The Double Life of Véronique (1991) on Criterion Channel with a subscription.

Véronique is a beautiful young French woman who aspires to be a renowned singer; Weronika lives in Poland, has a similar career goal and looks identical to Véronique, though the two are not related. The film follows both women as they contend with the ups and downs of their individual lives, with Véronique embarking on an unusual romance with Alexandre Fabbri, a puppeteer who may be able to help her with her existential issues.

Two identical women living separate lives in France and Poland feel a strange, inexplicable connection through their shared music and soul. This dreamlike vision uses lush colors and haunting melodies to blur the line between coincidence and destiny.
