(It's in French. Google Auto-Translate to English is pretty terrible.)
Excerpts:
- We do not do cinema for nothing. Films must serve justice, ask questions, try to understand the world, denounce and fight injustice and offer alternatives. We think and speak for others. There is always a point of view.- Working with others is trusting them to propose ideas, and then choose. Not imposing your preconceived ideas onto others. Directing is simple, it's just saying yes or no.
- I cannot live in a ghetto, I must rub with people and know how people live in their own world. Some people have much more pressing stories to tell than the stories we tell in the west. These are the stories I'm interested with.
- Identities are chosen, I see them as juxtaposition, as layers. You are responsible for your own identity.
You are one of a kind! Thank you Robert!!
Also, AF Toronto, can you please QC your videos...? That's the problem with direct upload, you do not see the results until it's posted. Oops! Too late! Guess what NLE is being used?
