EQUATION

This split-screen steady-cam exercise shows the choreography of two very different citizens. While the man lives on the street and enjoys the sun, his counterpart woman manages a production studio in a stressy job. When the day ends, the film title begins to make sense in this information overload. Spot the dog!

Dave Lojek loves filmmaking and belongs to the prolific and most often selected directors of the 21st century with over 1897 premiere screenings of his distributions at international film festivals worldwide. His favorite genres are comedy, parody, fantasy, romance, poetry, sci-fi and experiment. Dave also directs documentaries, dramas, portraits, and music videos. His works and distributions won 237 film awards. Dave Lojek graduated with an MA in English / American and Cultural Studies from Humboldt-University in his hometown Berlin.
