	With Love+2 I found the opportunity of communicating as a filmmaker with people while A THOUSAND WOMEN LIKE ME is the product of circumstances that created for me the opportunity of taking another step toward gaining popular confidence. LOVE+2 was the starting point and an announcement of presence while A THOUSAND WOMEN LIKE ME was a personal assertion. Cinema is basically the product of experience, and A THOUSAND WOMEN LIKE ME is the product of thought, experience and an index of my capabilities up to this moment. Maybe there are flaws in the film, but I have decidedly overcome the shortcomings of the previous film. If I were to make a film one day that did not represent a step forward, that day would surely signal the end of my career.
