• I live in New York, and Clara lives in Recife. The character is Brazilian, and as I read the script, I felt like Kleber [Mendonca] had been spying on me in order to create this role [in Aquarius]. Clara and I have different backgrounds. I come from an intuitive world, and she's an academic, but when we got together, we really became one. There are many times when I'm watching the film where Clara will say something, and I will find myself agreeing with her. It was the first time that I had this weird sensation that the character I played is so me, but yet it's so her.

• Nobody who comes out of the movie [Aquarius] focuses on those [sexual] scenes, because they are not the heart of the film. They are a consequence of the story, but I don't remember hearing audiences talking about them afterward. They came out discussing themes of resistance, history and memory. They're talking about the beauty of the self and how it can become demolished.

• When you actually see it, it is quite strong, but there's nothing really pornographic about it. They are high-impact yet very short moments of sexuality, which makes it very confusing for the censors.

• Sônia Braga reacted in a beautiful way to the draft I sent her, so we just made the film ["Aquarius"] as I had written it.

• Creo que la película [Aquarius] viene de esa sensación original que tuve hace 18 años, cuando estaba en un supermercado de São Paulo. Estaba haciendo cola para pagar algo y, cuando levanté la vista, vi las ventanitas de una cabina de proyección. Fue entonces cuando me di cuenta de que el supermercado solía ser un cine. Ni siquiera se molestaron en cambiar las paredes. Hace años, en ese espacio podrían haber estado proyectando "Sonrisas y lágrimas".
