The women in this story are the ones who more than anyone else will be affected by the consequences of the verdict. So they are united by this huge unknown [outcome] that they have in common.

The Law involves men inside the courtroom while natural law are the women sitting outside…So while inside there is a clash of positions, perhaps on the outside there is another route that things can take.
Talk to me about working with ace cinematographer Maurizio Calvesi who has lensed something like 60 movies. It was great. He was really involved and very passionate.

At the end of the day what was most important was to make the characters stand out. That was the path we took. I really learned a lot from him. He helped me understand what I was looking for and what I really wanted.
