I am drawn to intimate, often uncomfortable portraits of a woman persevering and awakening.
Just because I’m telling a story about a woman losing faith is not my rebellion against what I grew up in. If anything, it really affected the way I approached the story, and in fact, approach everything. I don’t judge my characters.
Faith is important to me.
You dont have to be gay to be attracted to your friend.
The experience of giving birth itself made me feel more womanly.
Honestly, I think a good film is spiritual, regardless of whether its subject is faith.
