If you have $300,000 to shoot a cigarette on a table, it's an enormous amount of money. Maybe that's why my movies are the way they are. But it's the only way I can make a living.

Living, it can be sad too.

The projector will soon disappear. The camera, not really. OK, it depends... it depends on change.

The cinema substitutes for our gaze a world more in harmony with our desires.

Film is like a personal diary, a notebook or a monologue by someone who tries to justify himself before a camera.

When you are out in the land, OK, you have the land but you are alone with it. And sometimes it is too much.
