Gwai Lou (鬼佬) means “Foreign devil”, it is a common Cantonese slang for Westerners. People used to call me this as a joke when I first arrived in the East. Now it is how I call myself. The layout of my life is uncertain and never in a straight line, it crosses many countries and many apartments for rent. I do not conceive of nationality as anything else than a sum of character traits, and I do not care too much either about mine or anyone else's. I have been living and working in film in several countries in Europe and now I live and work in South East Asia. Who I am and the cinema I make are most of the time the same thing.
