I wanted to catch the problem of consumption, waste, poor people eating what we throw away, which is a big subject. But I didn’t want to become a sociologue, an ethnographe, a serious thinker. I thought I should be free, even in a documentary which has a very serious subject.
I think people should be different. I love people who don’t go by the rule that you have to be careful because you’re old, you have to do this and that, you have to eat this and that.
People like my films. They understand me through my films; it’s like a connection that has been established between all my work and myself and the audience and the viewer.
I need images, I need representation which deals in other means than reality. We have to use reality but get out of it. That’s what I try to do all the time.
