00:00 there's more of an emphasis on instant attraction
00:02 and trying to find someone
00:03 that you'll fall in love with straight away.
00:05 And I wondered, did that kind of factor in
00:07 to your storytelling when you were,
00:09 you know, coming up with this idea?
00:11 - Yes, for sure.
00:12 I mean, when we had the idea, it was,
00:14 and I'm still actually trying to understand what is love
00:17 and why love has changed so much the last years
00:20 and why people are, as I said,
00:22 looking for answers in their devices.
00:24 I mean, if you will think that right now,
00:26 most of the people are swapping right or left
00:29 in order to find love with their fingers
00:32 and their fingernails.
00:33 And are looking for the right person in that way,
00:38 instead of in the digital age, as you said,
00:41 instead of going to meet somebody
00:45 and follow more their instinct.
00:47 It's a little bit scary for me, to be honest.
00:53 And it's a little bit scary
00:55 because I am meeting more and more people,
00:58 and especially people that they are on their 20s,
01:01 that they're doing only that.
01:03 And I just hope that it will change it somehow.
