...anchovies-we have 32 fish swimming with me. So we've became more confident in how to realize these paper costumes. Also, we work with Sam Levy who is the cinematographer. He added gels to the lights, so in the fish series, the colors have become even more vivid. And I think the lighting is glamorous. It added to the film, because I was photographed glamorously, but as an earthworm...

And the method to produce foie gras is vivid and sounds incredibly unpleasant. Imagine if somebody put a pipe down your throat and filled you up with food. You would be gagging, falling over. But ducks actually breathe through the center of their tongue. They're not gagging and being prevented from breathing. In fact, they store fat in their liver, which is unlike us. But it sounds...
