I love doing interviews that are about work that I do, films that I make. I am not very interested in the rest. I think I have always been quite reserved and a bit frightened of that whole thing.

I started off when I was seven years old doing musicals. I was in ‘Les Miserables’ and ‘The Sound of Music,’ and my mum’s an actress. My parents divorced when I was young, and when she couldn’t find a babysitter, I was in the wings, sleeping.

I love to see how far you're able to go, both in skills but also emotionally how far I can push myself.

Everyone surrounding you has gone through similar things. The search for love or the desire to have a family or the loss of a child.

I do work very hard. I have been very colored by that education. I spent six days a week, seven hours a day training. That will always be the foundation of my work.

You always want to translate as much emotion as you can, even if it's broader with bigger emotions.
