“From the writing stage, I had envisioned a film that would be bright and light, even if the movie addresses adolescent unrest and self-destructive behavior.

“About my work, my first film, Écoute le Temps (Fissures), was positioned by distributors as a thriller because they thought that it would sell more easily. But it was surely a mistake, as that kind of viewer did not take the bait, and it drew away its potential core audience, those whom I met in festivals and in various Q&As who seem to appreciate that particular kind of cross-over arthouse film.” FirstsKindSeemsFilmMistakeAudienceParticularMetsAppreciateCrossesSellsVariousCoreViewersFestivalsThrillersBaitDistributors Author:Alante Kavaite
