It's interesting work for me to tell my life, as a possibility for other people to relate it to themselves - not so much to learn about me.

I'm interested in people who are not exactly the middle way, or who are trying something else because they cannot prevent themselves from being different, or they wish to be different, or they are different because society pushed them away.

My company is called Ciné-Tamaris, which is rosemary. That's my speed. Hot water and herb.

I'm trying to capture something more fragile than a regular story. I love what people bring me.

When I started my first film, there were three women directors in France. Their films were OK, but I was different. It's like when you start to jump and you put the pole very high - you have to jump very high. I thought, I have to use cinema as a language.

I don't believe in inspiration that arrives like a bolt from the blue ... It seems to me that the more motivated I am by what I film, the more objectively I film.

I made a braid because Chinese old people, they say that the God will take you by the hair to join you with - but God didn't take me, so I cut the braid.
