- I think... cinema is the closest thing to magic in this world
- "Job Life" is my message to collective consciences, against an exploitative system that oppresses and manipulates societies.
- Paraphrasing to "V de Vendetta": This film is a symbol, the fact of doing it too. Although, a symbol in itself is nothing, but ... with the support of enough people, a symbol, can change the world.
- (About "Job Life") Why Black and White? The choice of black and white is related to the protagonist's introspective and it was meant to reflect his anguish and depression. As all things, when used, they tend to lose their brightness or color: 'Javier' as he loses the essential values of the human being, due to labour oppression, he begins to see his surroundings on a grayscale; trapped there, we see the landscapes in depressing tones in which he lives.
Understanding white and black as beginning and end respectively, the film shows the protagonist debating with himself such cycle. Longing to get out of that tepid scale, he looks for something defined: the end. Black and White was used as another character in the story, its choice was of great importance to the plot. - We live in a world where it's more expensive to buy a fish tank, rather than the fish that will live inside. That is what life means for the human being
