As an actor, I have to be fulfilled in the roles that I play; it has to be a journey for me to learn something or involve myself.

For me, acting goes to a special place; it's almost mystical. You have to let go of what you think is good; it's a jump into trust, and trying to reach without wanting too much.

Oh, I'll be forgotten too, don't worry.

I want to make films that are political and social. Films with a message or an idea. Films that dare to ask.

Maybe it's because my mother divorced and my grandmother divorced, so maybe I'm frightened deep down. But then I also feel there is no real need. Why do I need to get married? To reassure me? No I don't need reassurance.

My private life is very private, and I have chosen not to live in America or England, where you are so exposed and can't fight against it.

But, you know, when I choose a film I need to believe in it and believe I can do something special with it, and after a while that means not trying to judge or analyze why I should do it. You have to follow this intuition thing, which is a mystery to me.
