Cinema Quote by Alice Rohrwacher

“People are now used to films that we consume like fast food. These people have been working hard all day, so they want to escape, to run away. They want to watch a film that makes them forget everything. Whereas I try to make films that make people remember, not forget.” quote by Alice Rohrwacher
