My tendency in life is to like movies that deal with heavy stuff, but it's my nature.

Laughter is a way of really letting out all this pressure that you could face in your daily life in the suffering of your people, and comedy is almost like a medicine to your soul in a way.

My identity was a big issue when I was a teenager, and I had a lot of questions, like: 'Who am I?' 'Who do I belong to?' But when I was still quite young, I decided that belonging is a tough process in life, and I'd better say I belonged to myself and the world rather than belonging to one nationality or another.

I grew up acutely aware of the exile and distance caused by war.

I love to take risks and see how I cope with the situation.

Simple things don't interest me.
