political becoming film
I studied political science and international relations and had the intention of becoming a journalist or work in foreign affairs. I had no intention of making a film.
school eye different
I was interested in immigration and I wanted to use that in the film, not necessarily to talk about immigrants, although I wanted to do that, but to talk about ourselves through the eyes of an immigrant. The film takes place in the school and it tells us a little bit about who we are and where we're at, but through the eyes of someone who has a different background.
