I think I'm innocently representing a certain belief in motion pictures, and, well OK.

In films, we are trained by the American way of moviemaking to think we must understand and 'get' everything right away. But this is not possible. When you eat a potato, you don't understand each atom of the potato!

We once believed we were auteurs but we weren't. We had no idea, really. Film is over. It's sad nobody is really exploring it. But what to do? And anyway, with mobile phones and everything, everyone is now an auteur.

There is no such thing as intellectual property.

The invention of photography. For whom? Against whom?

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

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