00:00This is a story that I could not have conceived if I had not come to live in the United States, I think that the immigrant consciousness is something that helped me a lot to see that other side, that other perspective.
00:18There were many cultural impacts that awoke me to this possibility of making a film of crossed stories, but in different countries, in different continents, with different languages.

02:07Now, finishing Babel, I would love to make a film, after the complexity and the problems I have faced in Babel, which is a film with many challenges, perhaps the biggest challenge I have had in my life as a director and as a person, I would like, perhaps, after Babel, to make a much simpler film, in a chronological order, event after event and of a single character in an apartment, a monologue.
