About

"I'm the sentimental type (I cried when Lucio Battisti died) and the cheerful type (I laughed when Bruno Mégret died). I like Marseille, Mahatma Gandhi, Salvador Allende, the smell of Rome, spaghetti alle vongole, revolutionary Romanticism, and socialist festivals. More than anything, I like people. I profoundly love human nature. The most important thing for me is that my movies change people, even if only for an instant—making them happier, more emotional, more in love. Especially happier. Maybe that's the only reason I make movies."

(Stéphane Giusti, Director)
