I am not at all interested in theories about cinema. I am only interested in images and people and sound. I am really a very simple person.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I truly believe in cinema's potential for cultural impact. I have a clear idea what I want to do - to enrich people's lives.
My influences come from real life. I'm not interested in cinema for cinema's sake. I'm interested in life - what one does and how one interacts.
I want to be part of great cinema. That is my only aim.
A message I've been telling myself: the cinema is very conservative, and unless you have a story that satisfies you, that is within the unchallenging zone, but you love it, you can't do it as cinema. Otherwise, you better go do it for television, which is more daring now.
I'm working in a form of cinema that can be described, and has been described, as a diaristic form of cinema. In other words, with material from my own life. I walk through life with my camera, and occasionally I film. I never think about scripts, never think about films, making films.
I am very filmi by nature.
I hope to do films. Right now I'm just doing projects that are interesting.
I am really not interested in the cinema.
When it's good, cinema can be one of the most important things in a person's life. A film can be a catalyst for change. You witness this and it is an incredibly spiritual experience that I'd never lived before; well, maybe only in a football match.
I am a student of cinema, and I love filmmaking of all kinds.
