The consumption of information, films, music has been changing in recent decades. It's hard to know what will become the film that can not easily reach [audiences].

I am concerned that a film without an large advertising [budget] can not establish a connection with contemporary audiences, of course.

Without doubt, in animation each frame is important, every movement defines the character.

Emotion and thinking are not distinct substances.

I am fairly optimistic about the disillusionment that produces homogeneity in general. The films that succeed in [theaters] are fairly homogeneous in terms of narrative and vision of the world.

My love of storytelling comes from oral tradition, the stories from my grandmother and conversations with [my] mother. The world is full of discussions of condensation, drifts, misunderstanding, repetition. These are the materials I work with. My debt is to these women.

A film is a process of thinking that is not opposed to an emotional process.
