            "I feel like the luckiest person in the world to do what I do, to have the opportunity to make the films that I make and to experience other
             species in the intimate
 way I'm allowed to.  Of course with that privilege comes a huge responsiblitliy to bring their stories to the public
             and to raise awareness.  I feel like I'm a bridge between these beings, who don't speak our language, and the human audience..."
