- Hope
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When you're filming, you're blind. But if you follow what really moves you, then you operate from a place of hope: maybe that the story you're telling will resonate with whatever the world will have become when the film is ready to be born.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
This idea of walls, segregation, labels, and 'You against us' and 'We are superior and you are inferior.' Which people are legitimate? Which relationships are legitimate or not? Who declares that under which authority? These are things that are hugely important.

- Nov 07, 2020
I wanted to be a poet. I wrote from ages 15 to 22, but I left it because I discovered, and fell in love with, cinema.

We all have a potential revolutionary energy inside.
- Death
- |

Death is astute as a master. It's a process that teaches people aspects of themselves.

- Nov 07, 2020
Casting is an art, and if you're interested in people, like I am, casting is essential.
- Art
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In Latin America, cinema has always been a bourgeois activity, I guess, as it is everywhere. It's just a stupidly expensive art form, and there is nothing you can do about it.
- Creative
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Creative processes are always very opaque. Afterwards, you tend to pretend that everything was planned and it was a strategy, but it was not like that at all.
- Know
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My stepfather was in the navy, so I got to know a side of Chile that is not what you would expect from an artist.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
To me, there was something moving about the idea of telling the story of a lady who is, in a way, a forgotten character - someone who would normally be a secondary role in a movie.

- Photography
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was writing when I was very young, and then I became interested in everything - I wanted to do photography. I wanted to act. I wanted to write plays, and then I wanted to film and to paint, but I felt that film had a condition that reunites everything.
- Make
- |

- Lights
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The living experience of film only happens when a film is seen, and only within the spectator, because they project their own fears, desires, and fantasies upon those lights and shadows.
- Game
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Film is a game of projections upon projections, and the projected image on the screen is a game of light and shadows. There is nothing there; it is the brain that is decoding those things. The film doesn't have any decipherable kind of meaning if it's not seen.
- Play
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm not saying transgender characters should be only interpreted by transgender actors - because that would be as rigid as saying transgender actors cannot play cisgender roles, and that's not the idea.
- Following
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've been following my intuition and what moves me.
