So, where's the Cannes Film Festival being held this year?
My dad made a film called 'Willow' when he was a young filmmaker, which screened at the Cannes film festival, and people were booing afterwards.
I got nominated for my second film as best young director in the Aikido Film Festival in Japan.
I went to the Tokyo Film Festival in Japan because I love Japanese cinema.
I always go to the Cannes Film Festival and it's just such a glamorous time.
It never crossed my mind to be a director, and I'll tell you why: because I'm a woman. It just didn't occur to me, but I knew I had to be in film.
Cannes is the oldest film festival in the world, and I've long dreamed of having one of my films there in competition. It's a dream that lay dormant for a long time; I stopped believing in it.
'Slumdog' initiated a chain of events like going to Cannes and being invited to the Cairo Film Festival, which changed my perspective of cinema and of being an actor forever.
There has never yet been a man in our history who led a life of ease whose name is worth remembering.
