I've Been Able To Carve Out Spaces

I'm Interested In That Thing That Happens Where There's A Breaking Point For Some People And Not For Others. You Go Through Such Hardship, Things That Are Almost Impossibly Difficult, And There's No Sign That It's Going To Get Any Better, And That's The Point When People Quit. But Some Don't.

All Of The Films That I've Made Are About The Country I Live In And Grew Up In... And I Think If You're Going To Put An Artist's Eye To It, You're Going To Put A Critical Eye To It. I've Always Been Interested In The Gray Area That Exists Between The Black And White, Or The Red And Blue, And That's Where Complexity Lies.
