I've always seen movies in English with Spanish subtitles. For audiences around the world, the language is less important than if it's a good film.

If your film is in English, it makes it that much easier to get a wide release.

I finally, you know, moved to Mexico City, where the film industry is. I started working there as a producer, which is a very, very valid thing for women to do, because we always produce for men, right?

Every single line, every single thing has to be fought over. There's kind of like an intrinsic doubt from absolutely everyone in my crew, my producer, everyone. It's not just the film industry - it's a worldwide thing. It's the culture of the world to doubt women.

I have a handicap in that English is not my first language. So even though I'm a writer, I don't write anymore because it's just harder in English.

I like making movies that people feel inspired by, a film that they will think about a few days after seeing it, and not entertainment that is completely forgettable the moment you walk out of the theater.
