I don't believe that narrative works when it's trying to teach a lesson or speak a factual truth.

I hate even the idea of a synopsis. When stories are really working, when you're providing subtextual exploration and things that are deeply layered, you're obligated to not say things out loud.

Filmmaking is a thousand choices a day and it's important to just let those choices potentially be informed by something deeper.

I came to filmmaking because it's my passion. I decided I can't have it distorted or marred by someone else deciding what it should be.

Editing is very satisfying process. You spend hours working on something and then you get to watch it. It's immediately satisfying where everything else is just kind of waiting and waiting and waiting.

I don't believe that narrative works when it's trying to teach a lesson or speak a factual truth.

I will be making films, and I'm going to keep working, no matter what I have to do. And I don't plan to ever ask for permission from anybody.
