Declaration
film director
“I would say there’s an irony that runs through the whole film. The irony that underlines the violence of our society and the absurdity it can create. What I like about the absurd is that it allows you to laugh at serious things, without thwarting the tragedy of the situations or ridiculing the intention of the film.”
