Right now, this has been an avocation... I think I’m on a sort of pinpoint, moment in time to move, when it’s more than an avocation. Because I know, what I want to do. I know exactly that I want to put some of my material into a streaming series, that connects by two books for girls, that are in a coming age, and with a lot of work with adults, that I so well understand, as a psychologist, and make a series, that takes one character from child to adulthood. I’m not going to say too much because if I can do it, I’m pretty flexible, but you see that some of the young parts coming of age, combined into the flow of adult decisions. It’s going to make a great series.

I have a lot of framework, potentially done. We just did a “Zoom” drama because this was the only way to work during the pandemic for financial and health reasons. This is our fourth zoom drama.  And this one is about adult women, and her husband, and their relationships. I’m sure that the web series can handle many of my things that I develop, so this is my way.

Right now, I’m working on a book, that I’ve just started, and finished the first chapter, and I’ve done the outline. It can take me on, and off working on night for half an hour, or in the morning for 45 minutes, it can take another 3-4 months. A book - is hard. What happens in a book, which is a little different then working with the actors. The characters are starting to take on a life, and they sort of telling you, what you going to write next. My new book is going to have many chapters, about 8 episodes, where you going to know a group of people, that are living in a particular house. House is the base, the people are different, because different people own the house at times. That is what I’m working on now, and it’s completely different from my other works. I cannot talk much about is at this point, because it’s still a secret!

Well, I think the idea has been appearing since I have concluded that there is magic in our life’s. But I’m not sure why it came to me, because I just wanted to do a film that moved away from the girl as the star, I wanted to move to a couple as a star of the movie. I wanted some magic in it, and I can’t tell you more why, and how it came to be, because once I get the idea of a plot, I can have it down in a half an hour. So, that’s how it happened. Interestingly enough, we were able to use my own home as the setting, what I never did before for my other films. But the strange part of this story, is that since we made a film, we sold the house, and moved to an apartment!

I want to raise many facets of couple hood. Starting from decision to adopt, to having your parents live with you. There is endless number of topics. But I’d say the deeper level that I want to work with, is how we create sense of safety in our lives, and for the people we care about, rather than beating up on each other, making life miserable, and not talking to each other for a week. How we create some level of safety, and that’s very hard, but critical, because in our country we don’t have enough safety, we don’t even have good childcare for babies. We have a lot of money here but creating a safe environment - for example your country is way ahead of us.

I feel myself ready to direct a full-length film, if people understand, that I have not gone to a school for filmmaking, and I cannot tell you exactly where the lights should be placed, but I can get the actors, and actresses to work at a very deep level, and give them a lot of permission to understand their characters. So, I believe we can really get to a very deep level, that a lot of directors are not able to make, because of my psychological background.

Well, my shooting process is very different from other directors. For all my "Selfie' films I have written all the scripts. and directed them. What made me proud, and excited, that there was often no crew present, and not even myself, when many of the scenes were shot by the girls themselves on their smartphones. I want to make my actors feel the level of responsibility, to get the deepest characters. So, my feeling around directing is not typical, because it comes from a deep understanding of psychological behavior. And I don’t expect to feel so much excited the way I’m working, it’s more the way a teacher would feel, that her students got it.

Of course, I’d like to be known, I’d like to be interviewed, I’d like to write more books, and make more films, and be invited to different places, but I don’t think I have a lot of the energy, like someone who is just starting out, because for me those years just passed, doing all those things. For me, being respected, and able to show the world, that somebody in my age range, many people, thousands, millions in my age range, can show their potential, can offer to the world. Yes, they can be retired, if you feel, that you need to, but still add productivity to all the world. I feel that I’m at the point, when soon I’m going to become clearly known for certain things, that I offered. My work will be known, there, where I’m going. That’s my vision.
