I never wanted to be a film director but after this experience I really loved it. I would love to do more documentaries but it's difficult to find backing for them.
There were times when I was ready to shoot myself,
I'd see people in the middle of winter sleeping under a blanket in the snow, ... I'd be looking at them from my window and I would think, 'What's going through that person's mind?'
One of them, who I became really friendly with, used to talk about the tunnels, ... He'd say, 'In the wintertime, I'm going into the tunnels. I'm sick of sleeping out here.'
It's very different now, my relationship with them,
When you watch all these other projects, you always see the little guy, sitting in the corner, feeling sorry for himself and blaming the whole world, ... You don't see a normal person.
What being a crew and what this film did was give people a sense of future. It gave them a goal to work towards, which was really special.
Other people were fantastic at tapping into electricity. We'd be in a place with no electricity and they would make electricity happen.
