During a tour with my films in Spain last spring, I had the pleasure of being honoured with the attention of three young people who offered me the opportunity to participate in the following interview. I was touched by their seriousness, but also perceived something out of the ordinary in their project. They seemed to have no common thread and their knowledge and respect for the subject was surprising and inspiring. How could they know so much about the American avant-garde. We arranged to meet in the lobby of my hotel on Saturday a little after breakfast.
