I liked Lady Gaga's meat dress. It was funny.
Scientific thought and the miraculous unconscious are two waves in the same ocean.
I didn't want to make cinema so a person forgets himself and has a lot of fun. 'I forget myself, I am a little poor consumer.' I wanted to make a picture where someone who sees it say, 'This is me! This is me!'
We are all working for the immortality of the human consciousness.
For me they are no different, reality and dreams.
You dream every night. Every person in the world, even if they don't remember, is dreaming every night.
I am not a man. I am not a human being inside. I am not that. I don't know what I am, but I am not that.
In Chile, they have no movies. They have awful popular movies.
I want to liberate my imagination and my mind with every kind of movie. That is what I wanted to do all my life.
