In German. I'm more sensitized to the details, to the emotions. In English, I wouldn't detect as much nuance.

An artist is someone who should raise questions rather than give answers. I have no message.

On the set I make jokes I can't get too involved, or it turns into sentimental soup. I try to keep it light.

It's impossible to consider living without ideals. However, when ideas lead to ideology, that's a very dangerous thing. Ideology then leads to creating the image of an enemy, and it leads to the murder and massacre that we've seen since the beginning of time.

I consider all my films experiments.

It's the duty of art to ask questions, not to provide answers. And if you want a clearer answer, I'll have to pass.

Like every filmmaker, I make my films to reach the widest audience possible.
