So I have been faithful to my own fascinations, and that has been my point of departure every time. And when I look back at my work, there’s a story in it. First of all, I’m honest to my fascinations. I never did a film that I didn’t want to do. This has always been carried by my curiosity towards life in general, curiosity, but then also personal taste and personal desires. I’ve always been asking questions.
