Quote:
"It was very close to my own story. [...] My mother and brother saw the film and they connected with the story; it's always strange to show such a personal story to family members. But even though Emporte-moi was very autobiographical, it was also inspired by my Jean-Luc Godard fascination."
-- Léa Pool
