of making the images
shot by the youths

:22:05
credible.
:22:11
It is sometimes cynical
:22:13
to witness a certain nastiness,
:22:17
certain natural instincts
:22:20
that we bear inside us,
unfortunately.

:22:23
The most negative instincts.
:22:26
But it attracts people.
:22:30
Listen,
:22:31
if I was a hypocrite, I'd say:
'One shouldn't hurt animals'.

:22:36
Back then,
I didn't give a damn.

:22:39
It was functional for the movie.
:22:43
I'm not a relentless defenser.
I do not maltreat them,

:22:48
but still I eat meat.
:22:52
I support those who defend them
and care less about humans.

:22:57
And so...
:22:59
At some point,
I had to kill a boar.

:23:04
Recently, when showing the movie,
I received messages like:

:23:08
'Bastard, you killed a boar,
you're gonna pay for this!'

:23:13
When you eat ham,
it's the same.

:23:16
That didn't trouble me.
:23:18
However, tribal rites with monkeys
impressed me very much.

:23:25
Beheading them... People do that
in China to eat warm brains.

:23:31
This animal is close to us,
it's very impressive.

:23:34
These scenes were the most difficult.
:23:37
But nobody complained.
:23:42
It was the beginning of
the rain season.

:23:47
We were shooting a scene
:23:50
on a small island,
:23:53
quite far from our camp.
:23:58
We heard the thunder,
which announced rain.
