For some time I had been thinking about doing something with my Paris footage, of which I have many many hours. So [curator Danièle Hibon's] suggestion [to make a new work celebrating 20 years of cinema at the Jeu de Paume museum] came just in time. I spent some three months going through my Paris footage and I managed to reduce it to the length you will be seeing, two hours and 39 minutes. It was very very hard to do so. I have so many friends in Paris, so many memories – and it's all on video.
