Christmas Lights May Be The Loneliest Thing

I Am An Independent Film-maker First And Foremost. I Have Always Cut My Own Cloth.

My Family Is Almost Exactly Like The One In 'monsoon Wedding'. We Are Very Open, Fairly Liberal, Loud People.

I Know What It's Like To Be In One Place And Dream Of Another. I Also Know What It's Like To Feel That Nostalgia Is A Fairly Useless Thing Because It Is Stasis.

We Have Three Generations At Home, Including My Father-in-law. I Keep A Very Low Profile, And A Lot Of Things I Do Are Very Much With The Family In Mind. I Have Actually Made Films With The Family Around Me.

If We Don't Tell Our Own Stories, No One Else Will.
