Transcription
[Music] [Music] films are a bit different they work a bit differently than a normal narrative kind of relax and go to open it the process was so profoundly intuitive or so like felt like more of channel like something appears to me and then I captured it yeah I wasn't really thinking consciously I'm going to make a poem about non-violence it's about money and it's about capital as admitted about all of these things you know ironically we we actually made the film almost entirely on donations very indebted to GZA for providing me with that kind of thing [Music]
