3 films
Films that shaped it
-
My relationship with cinema started mainly with 2001 and Alien. These two movies, I saw them very young and they deeply influenced me, how I perceive cinema, how I perceive sci-fi, how I perceive sound design, production design.
-
What I wanted to do in 'Arrival' was trying to create that kind of mood of loneliness, this kind of poetic quality that you can find sometimes in Tarkovsky. For me, ‘2001’ and ‘Stalker’ are the two main inspirations for ‘Arrival’.
-
I like the idea that a movie can be an immersive experience. I often refer to Wim Wenders’ Pina, for example, where I felt that the camera was a dancer. I felt myself on stage. Arrival for me was designed that way.
