My Parents Taught Me To

I Think Entire Social Groups Are Formed Through Technologies That Could Never Exist In The Real World, And Relationships That Are A Function Of These Technologies' Ability To Accelerate Feeling And Emotional Contact.

I Think In The '80s, When I Started Making Films, We Were All Suspicious Of These Technologies. We Were All Convinced They Would Filter Out Any Emotion And Sense Of Intimacy, And The Films I Made During That Period Reflected That. In Fact, What Has Happened Is The Opposite. I Think We're Saturated With A Degree Of Intimacy We Would Never Have Expected, And We're Trying To Sort Through This Idea Of Complete Access To Each Other's Lives On An Ongoing Basis. Our Emotions Aren't Filtered Out At All. They're Actually Accelerated.

We're Lucky To Be Making Films. My Crew And I Have Been Working Together For A Long Time. I Think That That's What Emanates.

My Parents Taught Me To Believe That Through The Creative Act, We're Able To Transcend And Give A Response To Desecration.

I Make My Living Doing Freelance Directing For North American Television Shot In Toronto, Series Like Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Twilight Zone, And So Forth.
