Lucrecia Martel rarely gives interviews, and this public one is among the most personal she ever gave. Here we read (among other topics) some important comments on her current projects, on her critical vision of Argentine society, with its provincial bourgeoisie and its religious, if not monstrous, traditions, on the incestuous nature of family relations, on the political message of her films, on the importance she attributes to the writing of the screenplay, and on her casting and directorial practice. The interview even includes some highly symbolic anecdotes about her private life.
