  • How much time should we take to show this street so that what’s happening is something other than a mere piece of information? So that we can go from the concrete to the abstract and come back to the concrete. When you’re editing, something happens that tells you this is the moment to cut. It’s not theoretical, it’s something I feel.

    Nothing is simple, and whenever I say anything, I want to say the opposite as well.

    You know, when most people go to the movies, the ultimate compliment for them is to say, ‘We didn’t notice the time pass!’ With me, you see the time pass. And feel it pass. You sense that this is the time that leads towards death. I took two hours of someone’s life.

There are some legal and privacy information —written in german and not laid out very thoughtfully, though. It’s nothing fancy really, just good ol’ common sense. Frank Chimero said it best: Be nice. Give credit. Share, don’t steal. If there's something you don't want to be featured here, just let me know via email.

That's all folks.

ps.: You look good today. ✨
