Directing non-actors is difficult. Directing actors in a foreign language is even more difficult. Directing non-actors in a language that you yourself don't understand is the craziest thing you can possibly think of.

To direct actors is difficult. To direct actors in another language is more difficult, but directing non-actors in another language is one of the craziest things that I have done and one of the most rewarding experiences I have had.

Well, visual language is another boring discussion about the nature of film.

For me, cinema's like a language - everyone has their own form of it.

I think the cinema you like has more to do with silence, and the theater you like has more to do with language.

Without a possibility of change in meanings human communication could not perform its present functions.

So, not for lack of love of language, but because I feel our language is in an enormous state of humiliation, I decided to make films without words.

Cinema is a medium that can translate ideas.

You can't make two films at the same time.
