Director's Statement
None of us are born parents. Our children teach us how to be parents. They look at us in wonder, joy, embarrassment and, sometimes, sadness. The child’s gaze, imposed upon him by life, greatly interests me, the gaze of a child exposed to the adult world: to his parents and their relationship, to his neighbours, to his friends and their parents and their relationships. He sees his father when his father is alone, sees his mother when she is alone. It is these gazes from my own childhood that I try to recapitulate for the viewer through this film. “We live, as we dream – alone…” wrote Joseph Conrad in Heart of Darkness. Still and all, we live both with our parents and with our children forever.
