Summaries

a documentary about the filming of kvadrat movie .com

A feature-length documentary about a documentary, Kvadrat Gear narrates a filmmaker's struggle against all odds to achieve the impossible in cinema. No money. No film crew. No jibs. No cranes. No dollies. No steadicams. But a desire to create a musical documentary like no other: Kvadrat. A road-movie shot in 5 countries, a feature built of reality footage using fiction techniques, a hybrid devoid of documentary elements (no interviews, no explanatory voice-over, no facts, no figures)... In a brutally honest and painstakingly detailed way, Anatoly IVANOV, the director / DP of Kvadrat, shares his unorthodox methodology, radical gear selection, fearless do-it-yourself customization and other unusual tricks to inspire fellow filmmakers to question the status quo and realize their dreams.—Ektaron
