Life Chances (1996)

The history of modern Europe has determined the broad outlines of all our lives. Just before the Second World War my mother, a young woman, nervously moving from one address to another, meets my father, a Hungarian architect living in Paris. They marry and get on the last boat to sail to a faraway unknown country: Chile - the only country that would still take refugees… and my fate is decided long before I am born.

Modernist architecture, Latin-American Spanish, Hungarian, Jewish roots and Christian values become the building blocks of my existense. Now in London I have the comfort of being a curious amalgam of all these different cultures.
