I did the drawing and writing - for five years. I made a lot of short films the whole while and I made a promise to myself in front of the mirror that I would stop drawing when I signed my first contract for a feature film.

I see people growing more and more isolated in their lives. It's not like it's a new thing, but it's more preoccupying now as you can do so many things without leaving your home. You can work, shop, do everything from home, and I find this unsettling.

What stirs my passion is making cinema, and that means doing different things, making different types of films.

I like films to be complete in their written form.

No, but it’s not because I’m getting older that I’m trying to accelerate. But something very curious is happening: The older I get, the more ideas I’m getting.

When I was young, my idea was to become a filmmaker.

You may think it's very presumptuous, but I really hope that my movies are going to turn people into better people.
