DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT
"I’m Interesting I Swear’ is an exploration of the fascinating, yet ultimately debilitating, desire to be seen as interesting and unique. We follow Suzanne, a screenwriter consumed by the need to curate a captivating persona in both her personal and professional lives. As she constantly reshapes her image to impress those around her, her true identity becomes increasingly elusive.
The narrative delves into the human tendency to overthink how we're perceived, highlighting how the relentless pursuit of external validation can lead to a spiral into self-consciousness. I’m particularly interested in the kind of narcissism portrayed by my protagonist, Suzanne, whose obsession with how she is perceived by others eclipses her potential self-discovery.
Through Suzanne's tragic journey, I want to demonstrate that genuine interest in others is the key to true connection. I wish for the story to serve as a reminder that connections are forged not by striving to appear interesting to others, but by authentically engaging with and appreciating the richness of those around us."
