Critic argued · Denmark → Belgium

I guess there are not a lot of women filmmakers who have been influenced by Dreyer, but I was. Especially with Gertrud. She's a very strong woman, an absolute woman, and very much alone. That touched me a lot. He's also a director who is very much connected to women.
