"I'm forever fascinated by the complexities of humans with all our flaws and contradictions. The world is never as black or white as we're led to believe. It's a million different shades of grey. And that's what I like to explore in my films... I don't claim to have the answers. I'm not taking a position, or trying to tell you what's right or wrong (whatever that means...) All I want to do is to show a certain perspective and if it makes you think about something in a new light, then I'm happy."
