“The road movie is a representation of life: a set amount of time from beginning to end—a month, a week, or three days—but from start to finish, it’s a journey into the unknown. And that’s life, because you don’t know what’s going to happen right now, tomorrow, or next week. We’re all in an invisible car, living experiences, stopping when we run out of gas, but always moving forward, even if we pause to rest or admire the scenery. The road movie is a genre that gives you the chance to condense your life into a small slice of story, and it’s perfect for telling a film.”
