This is what art can do in our time. Unite people, and give them hope.

As a human being, I will always feel that where there is oppression, I am with the underdog.

I feel like my job is to give hope. The world is in a dark place and we are living in somewhat of a nightmare. So I want to make films to give hope.

This is what art can do in our time. Unite people, and give them hope.

As a filmmaker, you take reality and you tell a story from it.

When I was younger, I did dark movies. It was a reflection of what I saw around me.
