I would like to think that I walk along the realm of “normal” but I am guilty of having a very vivid imagination. Thoughts, images, conversations and stories are very intriguing and my source of stimulation.
-What inspired you to become a screenwriter? I never aspired to become a screenwriter. It happened accidentally while I was living in New York City. Every day was a new story and the elements changed. You are not in control and you have to find a way to fit into the developing story. I would read a news article, hear a conversation or people-watch (my fav activity). A story would follow.
-Do you think the cinema can bring a change in the society?
Yes. If the elements of a story can provoke thoughts or awareness, I think that society will become more aware.
-What would you change in the world?
I would start with oppression because that leads to so many social issues like violence, poverty, racial tensions.
-Where do you see the film industry going the next 100 years?
I think it will be more interactive. I think the audiences will be entertained, empowered and enlightened.
