Director, Writer, Editor, Producer

SCREENCRITIX REVIEW

Reminding me of Denis Villeneuve’s Sicario, Rog uses some really great (and loud) score throughout. In some parts, there is no room tone, no dialogue, no atmosphere, just a loud vibrating score to go along with the visuals, and it works really well.

 

I’d love to see this be turned into a 90-minute film, and, if Rog was given a budget and a crew to create it, I’d buy a ticket on the first day of its release. No Stars Anymore is a stylish Sci-fi short that looks great, has a killer score, and an excellent and gripping final ten minutes.

HE WANTED TO MAKE A FILM IN TRULY AMERCIAN STYLE, SO HE LEARNED EVERYTHING FROM YOUTUBE. WHO IS LUKASZ ROG?

Lukasz Róg loves Hollywood cinema endlessly. This fascination pushed him to take action and made him decide to shoot an American-style movie, alone, with none experience.

And he did it against mockery and adversities. The film "No Stars Anymore” had its premiere in Helios cinemas in Rzeszów on August 27. How did it happen that a man completely unrelated to the film industry (an IT specialist and English teacher by education, currently working in construction industry and education company) – all alone, with the help of a few crew members appearing in front of the camera, made a film, which won many awards in film festival competitions and in the end was displayed at the big screen in Helios Cinema?

UK FILM REVIEW

Rog does a great job as director and creates terrific aerial shots of buildings and landscapes. There is also a well-constructed montage consisting of news footage that shows riots and makes good use of fast cutting.

This accomplishment offers an interesting and intriguing experience. The story, score and atmosphere make this short film an admirable achievement that is worth pursuing.

INDIE FILM CRITICS REVIEW

For a first time filmmaker, Lukasz Rog does a commendably great job at gradually cultivating suspense through the course of the film in a manner that keeps the viewer wholly immersed and transfixed. He deftly employs intelligent cinematic techniques to create high-quality visuals which clearly relay the events going on in the film. Coupled with the foreboding soundtrack, this creates an anxiety-inducing and pensive atmosphere that engages the viewer’s senses and emotions very powerfully.

ADAM GAŁCZYŃSKI’S BROADCAST WITH LUKASZ ROG

Lukasz Rog is a filmmaker from Rzeszów whose film "No Stars Anymore ” has already been awarded several dozen awards at world film festivals. He is a self-taught filmmaker, but his achievements are compared to the best professional feature productions with multi-million dollar budgets. It is a proprietary cinema where all elements he deals with himself.

What cinema interests and inspires him? What does he want to pass to the viewers through the film image? How does he work on the set?
