“I don’t know if Krzysztof had seen the film, but he heard about me and we met. I don’t think I’d seen any of his productions at that point, either. So we didn’t really know each other’s work so well, but there was a great connection between us, and it felt immediately like we were on the same wavelength. I felt energised again, inspired to act. Since then, it’s not like we’re working together on every production he does, but we always look forward to collaborating.”
