CZECHS AND BALANCES

Gary Handel & Debra Epstein (USA)
1. A young woodworker, Mokoto (Koji Okamura), cannot afford his rent and his invaluable hand-made tools are pawned. In order to get money he resorts to snatching a girl's bag. He decides to return the bag and traces the girl, a Czech, Dagmar Chapek (Dagmar Stannick), whose husband has left her. Photography: Brian O'Connell; music by Liz Kuivinen & Terry Kawles. Written and directed by Debra Epstein under the banner of Sneaker Films, this was partially-funded by a grant from the Louis B. Mayer Foundation to the Film Division of the School of the Arts at Columbia University.
