I don't have storyboards, but I have some very strict rules, like not moving the camera.

What is very exciting with children is they like to play, and they don't care so much about the meanings [of things], and they are just excited to have weird scenes to do or weird things to do, like playing deaf, or playing sick, or swimming in the water.

With digital, you can shoot longer, take more risks.

When I was a child, I had a quiet, protected childhood.

The film from the beginning is not the real world; it's an imaginary world. And this imaginary world is both inside and outside the normal world.

I'm very interested in talking about children in this moment where you are going to become a teenager, and I think it's very relevant to use a fairy tale to talk about that.

Maybe our Earth is totally alone in the universe.
