"I was my friend's plus one for this party and I said, 'Oh I know that girl. She's in my photography and cinema class.' And my friend who I was with said, 'That's the girl whose apartment it is.' At the time I was looking for an apartment building where I could shoot the ‘Lobby boy’ story. It was impossible to find a place that would let me shoot with no budget. So I asked Oliva, 'Could I shoot in your apartment?' She said, 'Yup, no problem, of course.' And that was it. I owe it all to her."
