QUOTES:

“A short film is like a muscle you stretch before the long run. It is essential for me to work in a short becuase you can do whatever you want to do. No limitations, you don’t have to make money, you just test the cinematic language that you want to have.”

“The fact that you chose an actor means that you trust them. An actor is not just a vehicle it is someone with ideas, that understands how things are moving and you want that input.”
