One gets used to success very quickly. The surprise was how deep and enduringly I was touching people, in such different places and throughout generations.
Before my commercial success, I had difficulty doing what I wanted, but my sincere short films always won prizes in festivals. So I was ready for larger successes.
All of my films are based on personal experiences and beliefs. Many of my heroes are my spokespeople - and some are not!
I'm never really nervous because I've done the maximum; now it's up to the audience to do its job.
