"At this time in my life, I’m ready to accept or own a kind of romance and melancholy or melodrama that I wasn’t ready to reveal before. It was always there in my inner life as an artist, but I was too afraid to share it."

"It’s a metaphorical struggle, a girl in this nice dress being followed by the storm. And the storm is following her, even inside the house. So there’s a moment of disturbance in this seemingly perfect setting of a young girl growing up in this very nice home. The loop is inherent to the story. It indicates a kind of self-centeredness. It’s the character’s state of being."
- Alexander Birchler
