In a recent interview with Salon, Feldman was asked why it took two decades for Eugenio Milla’s film to be released.

The lamest movies, the ones I had to make just to survive, were all over the place. You always see life’s most embarrassing moments. It was the first time I felt a little bit of validation and redemption – thank God, while I’m still here enjoying it – viewing a piece of art that I care deeply about.
