I never studied directing and I never really thought about doing it, and then I just found myself in that situation and tried it. I like to be observing everything else, and I get self-conscious in front of the camera.

I like telling the story in a visual way. I don't like explaining a lot in dialogue.

I really wanted to emphasize the idea of the women being isolated and abandoned . . . and they weren't raised to take care of themselves, so they had to learn to survive.

Ever since I was little, I've felt very comfortable on a set. The time is stressful - being creative under time constraints. But there is an excitement and energy that you only have a certain amount of time to get what you want.

I try to just make what I want to make or what I would want to see. I try not to think about the audience too much.

Thats the way I work: I try to imagine what I would like to see.
