When I made my first film, I had hardly ever seen a camera before, and I was a young man when I arrived in Paris from the suburbs. At the time, I didn't talk much. I was very shy, so the bluff served me. I was telling people that I had no money, and that I knew how to make films, but I had no proof.

I'm not especially interested in actors or their life, double, triple identities and all that.

My films start with images, a few images and a few feelings, and I try to edit them together to see the correspondence between these images and these feelings.
