I had flops, I had success.

To change history is very slow. The first two times I came to the States - black people didn't have the right to vote.

If you know nothing, it could be like an enemy in a way. I think that's the way I felt when I was young.

The mirror is the tool of the one who wants to do a self-portrait. And if you want to make a photo you need a mirror.

When I started I did not know I wanted to be a filmmaker. I started - I made a film. Then when I finished I said, Oh my god it's so beautiful - I should be a filmmaker!

I was free always. I could work without the money, to film this and that. But this is another point, because now I'm alone, and I can just use it when I want. I think the digital cameras have changed my view. Even though sometimes, including the installations that I show, I mix 35mm filming and video handmade.

I think people should be different. I love people who don't go by the rule that you have to be careful because you're old, you have to do this and that, you have to eat this and that.
