Quote by the Director [in French]

"Le documentaire [Let's Talk About It] est très différent [de Heaven on Earth]. On y parlait effectivement de violence familiale, mais c'était davantage un film sur la façon dont les enfants qui en sont victimes regardent leur vie. [Heaven on Earth] porte sur l'imagination, et aussi sur ce que c'est que d'être un immigré."
-- Deepa Mehta (source)
