The Flower Of My Secret

I Think That The Consciousness Of Passion Makes You Act Very Differently.

Maybe It's The Culture, Maybe It's The Cliché Of Latino Machismo, But The Mediterranean Male Character Is More Dull Than The Female Character. Women Are More Surprising And They Have Fewer Prejudices.

When I Make A Film, I Never Stop Uncovering Mysteries, Making Discoveries. When I'm Writing, Filming, Editing, Even Doing Promotional Work, I Discover New Things About The Film, About Myself, And About Others. That Is What I'm Subconsciously Looking For When Shooting A Film: To Glimpse The Enigmas Of Life, Even If I Don't Resolve Them, But At Least To Uncover Them. Cinema Is Curiosity In The Most Intense Meaning Of The Word.

The Silent Film Has A Lot Of Meanings. The First Part Of The Film Is Comic. It Represents The Burlesque Feel Of Those Silent Films. But I Think That The Second Part Of The Film Is Full Of Tenderness And Emotion.

The Flower Of My Secret Is Definitely More Based In True Emotions. I Also Wanted To Make Something More Realistic, But Not Naturalistic Or Simple.
