Abstract

My ambition in making films is to make them political in the sense of being profoundly 'real' in intent: in choosing the characters, in that which they say and in that which they do. That is why I refuse the political fiction film. One of the least appetizing things of the past few years are precisely those fashionable political films, these fictional political films, which are the films of half truths, of reality-unreality, of consolation and of falseness. They are made to pacify the consciousness. Instead of arousing polemics they suffocate it. . . . I avoid fiction in my films. I do nothing to console, nothing to embellish reality, nothing to sell the goods.
