Life is a winking light in the darkness.

The villains are all parts of me. For years I've been wondering what it would be like if all those negative elements were forced onto the main character's side. I can understand a character with that kind of anger.

Do everything by hand, even when using the computer.

Actually I think CGI has the potential to equal or even surpass what the human hand can do.

We depict hatred, but it is to depict that there are more important things. We depict a curse, to depict the joy of liberation.

Since I am a person who starts work without clear knowledge of a storyline, every single scene is a pivotal scene.

Many of my movies have strong female leads - brave, self-sufficient girls that don't think twice about fighting for what they believe in with all their heart. They'll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a savior. Any woman is just as capable of being a hero as any man.
