00:00Okay Alfonso, congratulations on Disclaimer. Seven hours of content, it's quite a huge
00:04undertaking to hold an audience for that long. Oh you just used the c-word, content.
00:09Oh this is Alfonso Gaurav, dude. It's 2024 guys, I've got to be honest. I thought that was so last year.
00:15But that was, now it's cancelled. Art, artwork. What outlet are you with? I won't tell you now.
00:23Not since the extended Lord of the Rings-a-thon have I seen that much. Oh there's a bit of content
00:28That's an excellent bit of content. It does seem a shame to use that word now I say it out loud.
00:32Have this experience emboldened you and enthused you guys for future projects like this? Or are
00:38you more comfortable with a nice two and a half to three hours? Well I mean I think both of us
00:43were interested in what this would mean to take a really clear, simple journey but yet
00:53convoluted with a lot of different perspectives. In a way, if you read the novel I think most
01:00people would have thought oh this is a film because there is a clear beginning, middle and
01:05end and a very clear event that happened in the past. But I think what often happens with
01:09what are seemingly simple events is they get convoluted by people trying to wrest
01:14control of the way the story is told. I mean we see that happening all around us so
01:19you know I think it had to be told in this seven hour way but I don't know.
01:23That didn't answer your question. I think that and the most interesting thing is the involvement of
01:28the audience in all these narrative lines because in many ways the audience is a new narrative line
01:34that comes in play. So yeah I mean it's about I think that whatever you're thinking
01:44I think that you're going to be surprised about your own point of view. It's a look it is probably
01:52the hardest thing to not talk about and talk about that I've ever done.
01:57So I just hope people will watch it. But we are talking about it.
