Iseloomupood (2011)

Some thoughts from the director PAULS KESTERIS:

What is Personality Shop all about?

- Personality Shop is about something we have thought about at least once in our lives - change.

How do You relate to the film personally? What drove You to make this film?

- As the theme of the film is very flexible and universal, we chose to show it through a cracked relationship. My past experiences have actually led me to think what have made each relationship unique and why chemistry between two people is something we can't really manipulate.

Just for fun - if You could buy any personality in the world, would You? What would You want to become?

- First of all, I don't think I would. But if a person would hold a gun against my head, I would choose probably a personality of a Shaolin monk.

How did You find yourself in the Anything is a Storytelling Device?! program? What was it like working in such a big international project? Was it difficult or easier?

- I was selected to participate because of unknown reasons (I guess you should ask the ones who selected me), but in overall I found it the most enriching experience. To work with people from three different countries is certainly not easy, but it gives greater chance of creating something really interesting, because of our differences not only as artists, but also people which come from different cultures. Clash of minds is always healthy.
