Director’s Statement
The best creative result comes when there is a close relationship between the screenwriter and the director and the ideas fl ow easily. Gabrilovic and I managed to envisage the same fi lm. Once we found the essence of the story we worked smoothly on a coherent plan, supervising each other, helping each other and directing each other.
