"Average Joe" A film by Simone Wiest and Gundula Friese Average Joe is a film project about four people who take many risks walking their very own path through life. Can you tell by their faces if they have a lot of headwind? Which dangerous situations, difficulties and inconveniences they meet by walking down their own unstable paths? Where do you think occupation or even betrayal lurk? We look at these people and try to find ourselves. Could the camera be an infusion? Or maybe the camera is a window between the inside and outside? In the film ."The last supper" from Robert Frank there is this statement: "…he took my inner thoughts and put them into a frame." What influences you to be yourself? Where do we find our own playground to become the person we already are? It looks like in NY there are more play grounds than anywhere else. There seems to be no borders on creativity but at the same time there seems to be no borders on free falling. People over there know exactly how deep you can fall. NYC is an animal. It eats, digests and spits it out again.
