The camera kind of finds things that the naked eye can't even see. By moving in a certain way, you're already telling part of the story.

I never really felt aware of my gender, being a woman, and whether that was in my favor or not. Because there's nothing I can do about that. I'm also really grateful to my parents for having brought me up to feel that equality is just something you take for granted. I hope that our generation will really change that. I think there's a long way to go.

I much prefer to work with dead writers, and ones who were writing four hundred years ago.
