I like the idea of making films about ostensibly absolutely nothing. I like the irrelevant, the tangential, the sidebar excursion to nowhere that suddenly becomes revelatory. That's what all my movies are about. That and the idea that we're in possession of certainty, truth, infallible knowledge, when actually we're just a bunch of apes running around. My films are about people who think they're connected to something, although they're really not.

There is no point in having sharp images when you've fuzzy ideas.

Cinema is the most beautiful fraud in the world.

There is no light in electronincs. There is lightening. But lightening is not real light.

Movies will continue one way or another. Maybe on video. Even on video games. You have to look at it, if you have children, or if you are linked to children, because it's new for them. This has not disappeared; the look of a child who is discovering the world, whatever it is.

If you have made three or four films, my feeling is, he is older than me because I am still making my first movie. That helps me.

Reportage is interesting only when placed in a fictional context, but fiction is interesting only if it is validated by a documentary context.
