[on Le secret de Chanda (2010)]: This is not a film about raising awareness about AIDS in Africa, though it deals with that issue. This is, finally, a movie about love. Love is the real thing in this movie that makes it a universal because we understand it. We understand the beauty of what a child will do for her mother..and what people have the capacity to do for each other.
