Manifesto

What kind of a filmmaker do I want to be? – is a very hard question, which I have asked myself a numerous amount of times, but never got an answer. Maybe I did not know what to tell myself or scared to hear the answer. I will try to tell you and myself, now, who I want to be.

I always liked films, but since a certain, rather young (as my family thought) age, I started liking ‘weird’ film, that people rarely liked and never understood. Films that they’ve said did not have a clear narrative or, actually anything, they were just moving images with no purpose, that’s what they used to say. I never agreed. I like stories, but I could always read one, because written text will always have to have a more or less clear meaning to be interesting to someone, because it only has letters put into words, but film…  A moving image – a combination of sound and image and anything else you want, even text.

Films should be more like dreams, that’s what I think – incomprehensible, but so beautiful and full of something, that it may sometimes feel like you can actually taste them.

I want my films to have questions, that people will only be able to answer themselves, I want my films to make people feel and connect with them on another level, so it could feel like my films almost have a taste. I want my films to have a mood, an atmosphere, but I want the people to decide how it feels themselves, so my movies would have a different, very personal feeling and meaning to every viewer.

I hope I can make films which will be dreamy and will make people forget, that they are watching something and give them ability of travel to space, without a space shuttle.
