Declaration
film director
“I felt I could make a very, very compelling, dramatic, thrilling – hopefully – film, but then by the third act you have this very intense emotional experience about a guy essentially coming to grips with his own mortality right in front of your eyes. […] It came to me that the best way to do that was just to have the audience experience what he was going through, so it was shot in a way that you were literally with him.”
