“I want to show people at their worst in a way that is so relatable that the audience cannot help but identify with them and understand them ... I chose to make a comedy about this story because I believe that at the core of all things is the nature of life, which is lightness. It’s not dramatic, it’s not melancholic, it’s just is” - Katerina Kiagia on Her Best
