Everyone has access to a pen and paper, but to be a great writer is difficult.

Witnessing is the essence of being a documentary filmmaker. Capturing moments in time; never knowing how history will judge them.

The digital revolution has had a democratizing effect. Now anyone can be a filmmaker, but to be a good filmmaker is as hard as it ever was.

If you make a great film full of emotion, of pathos, people want to continue to know more, to work harder.

I'm both an artist / filmmaker and a human rights defender.
