I'd actually really love to review books and films and plays, but you can't be an artist and a critic. I would love it if I could.

My alter egos have changed a lot over the years. When I was a child, I was a black horse called Storm. Whinnying and jumping over bamboo poles in the garden took up pretty much my entire childhood.

Films about women and their concerns are seen as frivolous, limited and, most damaging of all, niche.

I really like films and plays that cross over different genres. So I'd like to do something that you think is a drama and then you think is a supernatural thing and then becomes a drama again. That's very vague.

Motherhood so often comes in conflict with women's capacity to express and live their own lives.

I love science fiction. I read a lot of science fiction.

I can't spend the rest of my life being pretty in a bonnet.
