In memory of Mani Kaul

08Jul11

“When the most important (the most hidden idea) is found (or even sensed),

the film will show how rich people are in their minds and hearts, and not

how rich the film is in its forms and ideas.”

“The relationship between images, between sounds and between images and

sounds alone determines the content ( a world view or if you like the

question) for the film. Keep only necessary images and necessary sounds. The

necessity is on account of their mutual relationship. “

“Do listen to others (I being one of the others for you) but strictly follow

your own impulse. The project of any film is to find oneself in the making

of it and not to merely fashion a cinematic object of high emotional or

intellectual kind that is external to oneself.”
