But now I wish I could back to Stockholm to make international films there.

I discovered the 7th art at home when I was kid, through Charlie Chaplin's movies and those of my father who shot documentaries. He was my biggest influence. So I took his camera and started shooting.

A film that is bleached tends to have a more realistic quality.

Its just, for me, the natural standard: a woman should be able to decide over her own body.

I always need a couple of highlights to really spark the passion for a project.

I love involving actors at all levels - and they have to know that I want to hear their contributions, with dialogue, with story suggestions, with script changes, whatever.

But now I wish I could back to Stockholm to make international films there.
